100 Miles to See Mom

I left at 7am to ride mainly gravel to my hometown (Marshalltown) to visit my mom. Lisa drove over to give me a lift home ❤️. A beautiful ride which involved avoiding a thunderstorm, a “Haystack Burger*”
in Chelsea, Iowa, flooded roads, and running out of water in the heat of the day. Luckily I saw a person watering plants and stopped for rehydration , found out after chatting that we knew each other. Ended in Marshalltown at Tasty Freeze for ice cream. I grew up about two blocks from the ice cream landmark.
*Haystack Burger: A cheese burger with close to 1 pooung of Mozzarella cheese and 1/2 pound of sauerkraut.
