- En Route Text Message From Patty -

101 miles today. Riding from Belvidere to Coal City, Illinois. Very close to Chicago. Rural ride along corn and bean fields. The scenery is way different from Montana.

Cleaning up after breakfast and then I am on my way. Mosquitoes are terrible, but it is cool and overcast today. Heat is affecting me a lot less now. ttyl.

In Kirkland, Illinois. Riding with Sam this morning since both of us had breakfast duty. We are the last ones on the ride today.

We are rolllin through corn fields and bean fields. Looks a lot like Iowa. I stopped to get rid of my morning tea in a corn field. Ha! brought back a lot of memories.

We saw free range chickens and even heard a few roosters crow. It may rain today. Sam's here. He wouldn't go in a corn field (city boy). ttyl.

Hi Trish,
It looks like Wisconsin is really the transition state from the West to the East. I bet the ride will go much faster now! Thinking of you! Catch a firefly or two for me.
Love you,
