Hazy and humid this morning; the partially cloudy sky keeping the temperature at 70° for a couple of hours.  For twenty miles, we had a slight uphill grade as we pedaled past farms and small towns; so refreshing to see the American Flag being proudly displayed in these towns.  Besides the required churches, barns and horses, we had some different sights today, too.  We’ve notice in Ohio, homes don’t have swimming pools, they have swimming ponds, plus colorful beehives and the “mac daddy” of tree houses.

Reaching an unnamed crossroads on our country road, Rico waved us down.  He was just starting a renovation of a great old building and converting it to Cherico’s Roadhouse; this place will be Fabulous, once complete.  When the sun finally broke through before noon, it shed light on the previously disguised storm clouds. We reached the edge of town by 1:00, so stopped for a bite to eat.  Once again our hotel was on the other edge of town, giving us a great opportunity to check out the pretty homes and interesting buildings of Upper Sandusky, this is the police station.

Just before reaching our motel, we made a quick stop to pick up supplies for tomorrow’s ride and in walks “little Joe” (now lives in Cleveland)…..what a great surprise.  We sat and chatted for awhile, but he needed to head home and we needed a shower.

Not the wonderful ride we had yesterday, but the 60 miles ended well.
