Day 48. Monticello, Indiana
We have made it to Indiana!
It is very humid - 71% at 5 pm - and about 85 degrees. Rain was in the forecast, so we hoped to get here early, which we did. We covered 71 miles by 2 pm. About 5 hours ride time unassisted and unhindered by wind.
I prayed this morning that we avoid being rained on. At 12 miles from our destnation I looked back to see storm clouds bearing down on us. We stopped to tale a quick break 4 miles further on and heard thunder. So we cut that short and got into our hosts place. No sooner did we step on their covered porch than the rain started. Giant, huge dollar bill sized drops. Any single one could drench you.
Whew! Thank you Lord!
Our hosts are Seventh Day Adventists. They have graciously agreed to let us use the guest room in their home for the next couple days. We will rest on the rest God gave man - the Sabbath of the fourth commandment.
We will continue Sunday and expect to be poised to enter Ohio Monday. We expect to be done 3 weeks from Monday.
Here are some more pics from yesterday.
