DAY 68

Day 68 Seebree to Falls of Rough

Today we rode 75 miles and for some reason I was feeling like a triathlete. I got an extra energy boost and was bolting up the hills. We stopped at a convenient store and were delightfully surprised to find homemade turkey sandwiches from a lady who had been making sandwiches for 31 years! The terrain got a bit hillier and the day and miles got a bit longer! I wasn't feeling like a triathlete for the last part of the day, thats for sure. We stopped in a small town and ate some grapes.

30 miles later we found a campground by the Rough River Dam and I took a shower immediately! All Mark could think about was food, so he went to restaurant while I passed out in the tent for a bit. When he returned, with a nice chicken salad for me, our neighbors at the campsite invited us over to hang out by the campfire. We met Denise, Danny and Maddy, who lived in northern Kentucky. They offered us s'mores as well as cold Pepsi's and we enjoyed their company very much! Maddy put on a show for us and danced to Hannah Montana, blonde wig, sequenced dress and all! As we were headed to our tent, they invited us for breakfast in the morning!
