• This Week is Newton Week

    August 28 in the United States ⋅ 🌙 81 °F

    Aaahhh. What a great night's rest. I was out before 2200 and stayed that way until the warm glow of sunrise and the cacophony of cars finally woke me around 0630. Aaahhh.

    A liesurely beginning led to--not surprisingly--a liesurely day's ride. I think I'll call this week Newton Week:

    Newton’s First Law: Inertia
    An object at rest remains at rest, and an object in motion remains in motion at constant speed and in a straight line unless acted on by an unbalanced force.

    When I left Shreveport on Sunday, I gave myself 3 days to go 2500 miles. But I gave myself 4 days to go 1000. My planning doesn't always work out 🤣.

    So I've been stopping very often and taking huge breaks, like today with both lunch and dinner each lasting 1.5 hours 🤦. Once I get stopped, it's hard to get going again. Hence, Newton Week 🤣.

    Now, I'm camped behind a shutdown restaurant listening to what I assume is a high school football game at least a mile away. I can just hear some of the band (mostly percussion) and some screaming. This should be fine as long as I get rolling before daybreak 🤞.

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