Sometime in the middle of the night when Tim woke up and stirred me awake, I asked him what time we were leaving in the morning. Since we have under 50 miles tomorrow and since people aren’t feeling well, the group decided that we will go whenever everyone is ready. That was music to my ears, since I needed all the sleep I could get. We finally got out of the tent at 8:30 AM, over 12 hours after I entered the tent last night. My stomach actually felt better and I scoffed down a peanut butter and jelly sandwich that I made yesterday but couldn’t eat. We will see how that feels in my stomach soon.
Jackie and Jim was still not feeling perfect, but decided to ride today. It is under 50 miles, so everyone felt confident about being able to finish. We were on the road by 10:20 AM, and by 11:45 AM, Jackie was sick and had to be picked up by Patrick. Oy…poor Jackie. Patrick showed up 30 minutes later and off they went. Jim was feeling OK, so he decided to continue on today with the rest of the group.
After the 15 mile break in Maynard, we stopped in Coldspring at mile 29. After the break, everyone followed me down a dirt road that was not the right way to go…sorry everyone. At least the wrong turn wasn’t yesterday when we were doing over 80 miles! After correcting the route we were off for the last 15 miles of the day. We crossed over a bridge with a view of Livingston Dam before arriving to the campsite before 3:30 PM.

Set up camp, showers, meatloaf made by Tim and Jackie, broccoli made by Mary, and comfort curry made my Mel. Since Jackie and Jim was still not well, we left the RV by 8 PM so they could make their bed and get some sleep. Tomorrow is an off day which is perfect timing for everyone trying to get better.
