It felt good to get moving again, the weather had cleared up and it was
starting to look like a nice day.
We headed north to Hwy 22 and found a headwind with it. This was to the most
unremarkable day of the trip, up hills that weren't rolling enough to be fun and
not steep enough to be a challenge (spelling?). I don't remember much except it
got cold and we camped in a park.
The highlight of the day was seeing a dead deer, which by itself was not that remarkable, we've seen enough road kill to guess the type by smell (from 1/4 mile away if the wind is right). This particular deer however was covered in thousands of squirming maggots, I thought about taking a picture but the smell and sight were too overwhelming.
Back at mission control, Charles has been putting some pictures up on the web site (http://www.drewish.com/ride/ come on go check it out) and sending us lyrics to songs. We've been working on the Johnny Cash's Long Black Veil, it's a pretty good one to scream at the rain. Next we'll probably try to memorize The Beach Boys' Barbara Ann.
