Jayjay and I started hours before sunrise, in dense fog with temps around freezing. The sky brightened with sunrise, but the fog stayed for four hours. The photo at left was taken just past sunrise, at the post office in Wade. The fog eventually cleared past Stedman. After lunch, it turned into a beautiful day with clear skies, negligible winds, and temps in the low 50s F (10C). It was a very unusual and beautiful day for February.
We enjoyed crossing paths and chatting with randos Dean, Alan, and Mike O. They started at a more civilized hour after us, and rode at a livelier pace. Unfortunately, they brought news that rando Tom got bit by a dog, and that Mary and Lee Ann graciously abandoned the ride to help him get fixed up. Get well soon, Tom.
On our way back, we encountered a bunch of hamburger patties and buns scattered all over the road. The football Super Bowl was tonight, and I suspect a grocery bag full of party supplies flew out of someone's pickup truck. Imagine when they got home, and wondered 'Where's the beef?'.
The usual set of random: photos

On our return we encountered the buns but no beef. Perhaps some opportunistic birds had something to crow about at their Super Bowl party.
Great seeing you guys on the road.
