Day 35 Northfield to Lake City

Back on the road Monday morning. Our route directions were a little confusing, be we eventually found our way of the town. The road lead us due east. An unhappy moment came when we had to go over 9 miles of road under construction. The grinding machine as come and taken the top layer of pavement off leaving exposed rock and old tarmac. But then came some new pavement.

We see many funny things along the way. As we drove by a small meat packing company we happened to see some poultry waiting for their turn to be candidates for Kentucky Fried Chicken. May be you don't think that's funny.


















After arriving in Lake City I had a swim and then my first hair cut in a month. Dawn, the women who cut my hair is a believer and when she found out that we where riding for YFC, she made the haircut on the house. Thanks.

Lake City is right on the Mississippi River. It is a widening of the river. We were surprised with a boat trip. A few of our group went water skiing.






















Our host Amy did a great job of organzing our meals, and housing, plus a chance to tell the story of Sea to See.
