Mile 6120 Day 16
Thursday night was our last time in the tent for our summer trip. It was sad to think the trip had a conclusion, although I will be happy to see my folks, woofs, and girls in the South. It was a great night! The air was cool, frogs loud on the lake, and a light breeze. I could have done without the drunk party on 2 wheels blaring really bad bluegrass, but what camping trip is complete without some annoying people and a story to tell. We had breakfast in Iowa City at the Hamburger. We were told it is a famous eatery where presidents visit and campaign, and sure enough the pictures on the wall proved it! Obama was in there last with a large photo. Some guys from RAGBRI showed up to eat to with a cooler, smoker, and sink on their bikes. It was crazy! We drove to Jefferson, WI to stay with an old friend from SIU. It was great to see Todd and cruise around the town on bikes like old times. Sean attributes his climbing skills to chasing Todd around Southern Illinois. The greyhounds minded the house while we were gone...clearly a rough life! Sean races tomorrow evening in Milwaukee and we'll go to watch. Good times!

Nice pics. It's like a blast from the past. Glad to see you all doing well.
Aww, that reminds me of your dogs. By the way they were so funny playing together this weekend. Ava eventually kicked Mya out of her bed and she was left to sleep half on the floor, half on Ava's sorry excuse of a bed. They were very tolerant of the young over excited Boxer that invaded their space :)
We've missd you, not that we get to see you asm uch as we'd like but it'll be good to have you close-by again.
