Great weekend back on the water!  Sadly no wind for sailing, but great friends, food & fun!  Davis Hollow Marina and Lake Arthur.

Indiana

 

Randy, Gary, Bill and I at the races in Brownsburg, IN.
August 7-16, 2021

Travelled mostly the two lane US and State routes from Minnesota through Wisconsin and Illinois to visit college buddies and friends in central Indiana.

Two nights boondocking in Wisconsin and Illinois.



Randy and I shot baskets while visiting the Delt house at Wabash.





At the bike shop Randy & I met Jake,
a great Delt and Wabash grad.


Tailgating before the races.





Fun day at the ballpark with fellow Wabash Delts,
Murph, Dan, Larry, Steve, Craig and Randy.

Minnesota

August 4-7, 2021

Yah, yah, veere in Pederson, doncha ya know. Yah, Pederson, Minny-soda.  You betcha!

Actually, I was boondocking north of Houston and began my bike ride in Rushford, and really liked this welcome to Peterson, Minnesota along the Root River State Trail. 





The bike trail follows the Root River, hence this is the Root River State Trail.

You know you're in MN when half the trail usage requires snow.


Beautiful landscaping just off the Root River Trail.



Rushford has their big hilltop sign overlooking the town.

At the old Railroad Depot, now a museum in
Rushford at the Root River Trailhead.


MN completes my summer trip across the
USA Northern Tier states. I'm now planning time
with family and friends in IN, OH & PA. 
My current thought is to complete the lower 48 states,
MS & LA, late this fall, before 2021 ends.


Boondocking north of Houston, MN.



The flat rail trail permitted me to keep my average speed at a better pace.
