Day Two - Ohio and Beyond

Good morning all. It's the start of traveling day two. Here's the missing piece from last night:

We landed this beast last night around 7:30ish at a Flying J Truckstop. After a good bacon cheese burger and a chocholate cream pie we filled up the air mattress, squished it between the bikes. I took a video of the area. Sweet rolling hills reminded me of the highway area of Ellwangen. With a bit of haze, a blurry crecent of a moon, and a sunset of pastels, it made me anxious to see what the light of the dawning sun would bring.




So we're onto day two.

With going to bed at 9, those of you who know I don't sleep well know I maxed out at 4hrs yup up awake and bouncy at 1 am. Everyone else was sleeping so that sucked. Sleep it self was a bit crappy, the air matteress was less than desireable, it was hot, sticky, and pebbles found their way into the grooves ( from someone's shoe when stepping over the matteress when putting it in it's place last night ). After all that imagine sleeping in a big jumpy house. I awoke with major back pains, hopefully night number two will lead to better results.

After a sleepy wander to brush my teeth, and to conjure up some cappichino from a dispensor, an apple, and two heavy ass brownies for the ride, we got under way at 0800 hrs.





Weather conditions started out partly cloudy, inside trailer temp is just under 70. Which is comfortable compared to yesterday. And it started raining an hour now.
