4/6/12

Windy crawdad alley

Perry made us sweet potatoes and pancakes for breakfast, both were awesome.  We then got talking about all the work they have done on the property, which is all very well done.  Because I sewed my own bags and tent Perry showed and had me sew on her awesome pfaff machine.  Then we finally hit the road at 10, leaving yet another awesome host(Perry and Lep). They have already had 30 some cyclist this year and have a group of 50 coming next week (they are really amazing).
George did not join us as he was not quite ready to go.
We crossed multiple bridges including one across the Mississippi and road threw loads of small crawfish lakes.  While along a lot of that, there was a strong head wind that really slowed us down but we still completed our 55 miles by about 3.  George got in around 5 and had taken a slightly different route, 60ish miles, and left at about 11.  I was happy to see him and to see that the front panniers we rigged up for him held up.  We will be parting ways with him tomorrow as we will be heading south of the adventure cycling route.

    Isn't Perry amazing tho? Practically dedicated the construction of her whole house to being an awesome warmshowers host.
