Day 41. We started the day a bit COLD! It was 33 degrees - burrrrr. The whole day was 75.6 miles and 2,339 feet of climb. If you check the ride, we went to the north, and then to the south, and then to the east around Mobile bay, through Mobile, Alabama. Quite a ride indeed.
We started the day with a car show at the auto dealer across the street. Neat rigs and proud owners.
The, we rode into Lucedale - (I figured Lucydale!).
I also stopped at a local produce shop where they sold boiled peanuts! Never had those before that I remember, and they were good. But then, I was cold and hungry.
As the day was clear, cold but clear, there were some great views of the road we went on. Here are a bunch of nice views.
Also today we went from Mississippi to Alabama.
As usual, we met some great folks who helped us all along the way. Here are a few.
Therefore, we went by the USS Alabama museum. We did not have enough time to go check it out, but Dana did and look at here blog. Here are some pictures on the way. It is BIG.
Crossing the bay was impressive as well. We had to go the truck route, but that gave us great views on the way to and over the bridge.
Tomorrow we have a pretty big day, about 90 miles if we can make it. Hopefully there will not be a headwind! We know it will be a bit chilly - even here in southern Alabama.
