6/18/11 Wind, Hills, and Heat (LeAnn)


We left the roadside park after I took a meditative morning run and swam 1/2 mile in the lake/swamp next to our campsite. Biked west toward Midland through the worse wind and hills yet. It took us all day just to go 20 miles. We were very entertained along the way with lots of cows staring at us (every once in a while we even got them to moo at us). Got to Midland exhausted and hungry. Stopped in at Just Tammy's (the only food source in town besides the gas station) and ate omelets and hashbrowns. Rested for a while, then off to Philip. Storm came in and rain clouds chased us halfway to town until they finally caught up with us. Got to Philip late, grocery store closed early, Malt-O-Meal for dinner. We slept in an abandoned park filled with Cottonwood trees. Good, but exhausting day.
