Day 18: dodging storms

More rain today! But we learned our lesson. As long as we don't get wet we're okay! So instead of pushing through rainstorms, we waited them out wherever we could, at people's barns, at convenience stores, at restaurants, enjoying more calories for our tired bodies, and even at a winery where a nice lady gave us some jerky. We would wait till the rain stopped then pushed as hard as we could to get to the next town before it rained on us. In this very tiring yet successful way we were able to accomplish 90 miles for the day, still leaving us behind on schedule. If it just wasn't so cold we would have been alright. 

Sorry no pictures today! We're not very good at remembering to take them sometimes. 

We're right now nice and dry in our tent camped out behind a church under a pavilion we saw to the side of the road 

Enjoyed a great bike store in edwardsvillev today. Shout out to the bike factory!
