Last night we decided we needed one more day in Kansas so we stopped in the home of the Pittsburgh State University... Pittsburgh Kansas that was.
We have met many west bound bikers the last few days... Many of them are 26 days out from Virginia! so.... maybe we are less than a month away from home! Wow that would be a treat!
Kansas was a great state... flat and warm... not to much rain, not to much wind, not to much of anything... except nice people... Well not to much, but just enough... Like the guy who, told us a story about how, when he was born, the only incubator available was one for raising chickens... and being the youngest of four he was teased into not liking eggs for fear of eating a brethren... or the small cafe that was closing, but kept open to feed us... we got fed! it was a good thing we liked everything they fed us, but that is just how it is...
So far MO has been pretty much the same, except Cooky's cafe was closed... we have been hearing about it for days and now its closed...
Well we are off to the grocery to find some lunch and then... well does it really matter? the important point is, it is a few more mile closer to home.
Thank you all for the well wishes for my birthday... I got lots of great calls and Father's day was great too...
Much love all and keep the comments coming.

Tom-
I'm confused. Are you ending your trip in Virginia? Or are you dipping your tire and then heading to Wilmington? You have your cell phone? I thought you were roughing it....
I told my family a couple of weeks ago about your trip. Each Sunday at brunch, they ask for an update. Pretty remarkable accomplishment!
Keep up the good work. Also, thanks for constantly updating your blog. We check it constantly.
Brooksie, Stewart and Charlotte
