Made it to our third state. Whoever named this the prairie state never came this far south...more hills!
Not sure of the sequence on the photos, but there's one of a coal barge on the river.
We camped Thursday night at Cave in Rock. Pitched our tents in a picnic shelter because of heavy rain. This morning walked along the riverside cliffs to the cave where pirates used to hang out & ambush river travelers. Also a photo of the swallows that nest by the cave entrance.
Last, but not least, a photo of the current traveling posse...
Sharon & me, plus Dan from NC, and Klaas & Gosse from the Netherlands.
And a post script on fauna in KY I forgot yesterday- lots of reptile road kill (I hope turtles are not an endangered species).
and an amazing number of Indigo Buntings & Meadowlarks.

Barb, Sharon, and Dan. I'm behind you by several days now. I had some problems with the bike, and they are persistent. Still trudging on though, even after a 3 day delay.
ReplyDeleteNow I'm delayed at Sebree because everything seems to be full in front of me...Memorial Day Weekend. Sunday I'm taking a shortcut to Carbondale, which should put me there on Monday. The route I'm taking is straight west from here. Pasteur Bob, probably showed you that route. I have to get my bike fixed.
The others are a day behind you, and will reach Carbondale tomorrow...Sunday. They are scheduled to take a day off.
Terri is in Carbondale today, she got there yesterday, I'm not sure she will be taking a day off there or not. She has splintered from Jerry's group and is quite happy. She's a strong rider!
I'll be watching you guys' progress, you are all doing great!!

Loved the photo of the large colony of swallows. Meadowlarks and Indigo Buntings, oh my! Not something I see here everyday.
