Today was definitely better. The road resembled Laffy Taffy instead of ribbon candy. It was still hot but we had a cloud cover and some shade most of the day. While we were riding Brian was scoping out the route for us. Bless him because there isn't a coffee shop, McDonald's or even a Gass station for miles. Today it was 40 miles between places to get water. At home that would not be a problem unless it was mid August but here we have really had to pay attention and carry as much as possible.

We stopped in Gainesville at the dollar General. As we were leaving a man waved me over and inquired about our ride. He is a HOT SHOWER host. It was good to talk with him.

It is challenging to document the day with pictures because it is so rural. It's of the "towns" might just have church and so much is shut down or boarded up. You can see from yesterday to today the change in topography.

Brian got to play a round of golf when we got in to Columbus which he most definitely enjoyed.Read more

We stayed the night at Columbus Marina. We met two other loopers, one who had kids. Michael and their boy played all day outside.
The marina offered a courtesy car which we took into town to eat at Harvey’s, the marina area itself didn’t have much and was quite shallow to get in, but was still a nice spot to stay.Read more

My people got loaded up and then stopped a little bit away to get Clyde a special watermelon treat. I'm going to pout, because I deserve special treats. The shipping place doesn't even know how much their stuff weighs, but the dispatch person says it doesn't weigh much. My non favorite isn't very happy about not knowing how much the trailer stuff weighs. My favorite says is ok, though! So it must be. We have to go now!Read more
