Day 19- Meeting Farmington

0 miles- Farmington, MO

Took a day off because of unrelenting high winds and pending afternoon thunder/lightening storms. Stayed last night (and will stay tonight) with the Mohan's. Karen is amazingly active in the cycling community here, was instrumental in setting up the town biker hostel, Al's Place, and organizes community rides for adults and children. I commented that this must be an extremely biker-active and friendly area with such involvement. BUT- she corrected me, warning me that this is the most biker unfriendly state behind only Kentucky!

The winds are still at 20mph, with storms rolling in this afternoon. I earned a day off in the beautiful house by mowing the lawn and helping with their computers. Back on the road tomorrow, hopefully into Kansas by Tuesday afternoon.
