This will be short it's about 10:30 and we just finished dinner, I'm tired.
Left Gladstone at about 9 AM after the temperature had warmed to almost 40. First 150 miles cool and cloudy. After lunch stopped for gas and decided to put on rain gear, good idea. The next 8 hours was in the rain but at least the temperature had climbed into the higher 40s.
Except for the last ten miles or so the entire day was two lane roads crossing Missouri, along the Mississippi and part way across Illinois to Bloomington. The good roads and good friends were the only thing that saved the day. Plenty of breaks and the fact we had all of our rain gear on kept everyone mostly dry.
Tomorrow hopefully less rain and into Chicago early.

Strong winds, snow, rain, 4o's, two lane roads... Should you be on your bike?!?!! Be careful out there! Hope you made it into Chicago for your "lunch date."
Homefront update: We've been keeping busy. Mom's working hard to get the house ready for 3 1/2 more people, Josh's birthday Friday, Ally's shower Saturday, and the big moving day Monday. Lucky you!! Even though you've been gone less than a week, another man has already taken your place...Hayden! While Ally & Tim haven't officially moved in, Mom's pretty much moved in Hayden. He doesn't fight her for the remote or steal the covers! But he does miss his Grandpa. We do to.
Hope you enjoy Route 66!! Can't wait to read all about it! Love you!
