I am combining a couple days as things are busy and I am tired.
We reached Greenville last night and slept in a discount hotel which only cost $38 per night our cheapest spot ever. We did enjoy the room without bugs or mice. However the hot water only worked in the bath tub and not in the sink. The total distance we covered during the day was 74 miles which is why it is being posted here today.
Today Dave and I rode a total of 66 miles from Greenville to nowhere. However with Andy joining us and Angle having a car we were picked up and are quite happy about that. So tonight we are staying in a Super 8in Vickburgs.
The views yesterday and today the view was all flatland and there are plenty of pictures pictures posted of cotton fields and plowed lands already posted. Dave has not been really confortable with the locations for the last couple of nights. First Dave is not happy about Clarksdales and was even less happy in parts of Greenville. I now I was not happy with the drivers in the Greenville the traffic was high and people did not want to provide any space. Dave has found that it was best to take a whole lane and hold up taffic than try to be polite and let them drivers crowd us. One pickup truck passed us with a dog in the back and when that driver passed within 2 feets of us the dog barked right into my ear, I jumped right out of my skin. A full size transport truck passed within an inches and sounded his horn that also caused me have clean some shorts later in the day.
Thankful for Day
I am most thankful for Andy and Angle giving up their time to come down and help me finish out the ride. Andy is great company and Angle is driving support and that helps as we can stop anywhere and pickup the ride the next day. So thanks for the support guys.
Love and kisses to all and good night to all.
Allan and Dave
