BAM!66


Leaving Quapaw and biking into Kansas on RTE 66


Hot Shade west of Joplin, MO. Did I mention I started this ride 
at the beginning of the hottest week in the summer?


More shade


Cooling off in front of a mural in
Carthage, MO


Camp site west of Carthage, MO


Early morning coffee break stop


Red flag. Red barn. Blue sky.


Camp site. Not in the collapsed building. Behind it.


Italian tourists in front of antique shop


Carb loading


Old hotel. Now a maker of funeral memorials. Good camp site.


Shade. In front of ice cooler. Next to Redbox.


Arrow points to cool room


Somewhere on RTE 66


Signage and blue sky


Wounds from ditching bike while being
attacked by dogs


Slighter wound


My Starbucks barrista happens upon me
outside of St. Louis and takes me home.
