Wind is severe, very difficult bicycling, sore knees, be glad when I get to Monroeville!
As soon as I pulled into Monroeville, the town librarians made a point to direct me to the hostel where I would have a roof over my head this evening. They were so nice and caring!
Needless to say, upon arriving at Monroeville I was totally beat and I must confess that I look better than I actually felt at the moment this picture was taken.
These gentleman made certain that I was comfortably situated at the hostel. The gentleman on the left served with the 196 infantry, was twice wounded before returning home to resume his life in Monroeville. The one on the left loves old cars and travels all over the United States to show his Hudson. Thank you citizens of Monroeville for your graciousness, hospitality, and great accommodations.
Hey Steve, I will be in Chicago this weekend. If the timing is right, I would like to meet up with you. If interested, call me 217-972-3783. Jay
ReplyDeleteSounds great, I'll call later today.
DeleteYou're making great progress! And you're not too far from Decatur
ReplyDeleteHi Steve. You're awesome, man. May the wind turn to your back and speed you on your journey. If by chance your route will take you through or near Emmetsburg, IA (NW corner on RT 18), let me know. I'm spending half my life there over the next 3 mos.
ReplyDeleteGreetings Pat, so good to hear from you. I am in Illinois now and will attempt to connect with Andrea. Plan to clean my gear, service my bike, rest a bit, and get ready for the next leg of the trip. Been a great trip so far!
