From New Jersey into Delaware

I don't know what was wrong with me this morning, but I just could not get moving. I was fast asleep before 2230 and and still asleep when my alarm went off at 0600. I turned it off and tending to get up, but I fell back asleep until 0800. Even then I still laid in bed and dozed for another hour. I guess I really needed the rest.

With all the clutch work yesterday, I could barely bend my fingers and definitely could not make a fist this morning. I reckon that's what arthritis is going to feel like 🤣.

It wasn't a terrible day, but it did rain and the New Jersey 50 rides one nation hog route is not easy to follow and really shouldn't be done when the water is high. A lot of the roads are signed Road flooded or do not enter when flooded. Two Bridges were out. It was just a mess.

With the slow going for that 130 miles as well as my late start, I didn't get into Delaware until this afternoon. Then I have some routing issues because two of my Delaware tour of honor stops were not in the location that the tour of honor GPX file said they were.

Luckily Delaware is not a huge state, so I was able to backtrack to pick up one, and the other one I can get further down my route. The whole thing--what with going to the wrong location and then trying to figure out why it was the wrong location--probably took an hour out of my time, which is frustrating. But again flexibility is key.

I'm camped behind an American Legion tonight and again I am utterly exhausted. Wish me luck over the next few days. I have to be in Fort Myers Florida by the end of the 24th, 4 days from now. 🤞🤞🤞

Hope to see you on the road! Remember, NO WHINING! ✌️
