DAY 53, FRIDAY, SEPBEMBER 2, 2005

Back to Homepage Back to Missouri Next

 

At the KOA campground in Springfield where we spent last night

Almost ready to leave for Marshfield where we will park and stay tonight.

 

This is the "little" campground in Marshfield

We are about ready to start the ride back to Springfield

 

It is a beautiful day but hot

 

The crops along this route look very much like they did on our drive through Kansas last week. The fields of Milo are beautiful.

 

as are the corn fields

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

lots of rolling hills

some look like they will take granny and then we can almost coast up

others look like they will be coasters and they take granny

but they are all fun and the miles go by so much faster

than they did on the flatlands of Kansas

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

good roads - lots of hills - light traffic

it was a wonderful ride

we were really tired because of the heat

47.5 miles and 2019 ft of climb

Though we are glad to be back on the XC ride, we are going to take 2 days off and drive up to Columbia, MO to see kids and grandkids
