We left in the rain this morning. It wasn't raining very hard but the prospect was for rain all day so we were all appropriately covered. It didn't rain very hard or very long. However, the clouds stayed all day and kept the temperature down.
The countryside changed a bit today. The last 40 miles we started to get the rolling hills of eastern Indiana. There were a lot of old buildings. The picture is of a very large old barn that must have been quite a fantastic structure in its day. We saw the first of the Amish buggies on the road. There was an orchard that must have had 50 scarecrows in it. I couldn't get a good picture of all of them so just tried to get one of them.
One of the big challenges for these rides is getting us into and out of the big cities in a way that avoids as much heavy traffic as possible. Today we were coming in on a four lane road which had construction shutting down two of the lanes. The drivers were not too impatient (probably because it was Sat). But it is hard to negotiate traffic when you are really tired.
