Up from a good night’s rest and going strong again. By 3ish I was 25 miles into Mt. Vernon, IN. Thats 75 miles in about 46 hours. Stopped at a cool bar called Koodie Hoo’s and ate a bunch of food.
Walked outside into 90 degrees and couldn’t see myself going very far with a full belly, so I’m shored up. Just took a cat nap and the suns on me again. I’m moving downstream to a little island and will try to make camp there at least for a few hours. If feeling it I’ll attempt another few hours this evening when its cool and the water looks like ice its so flat.
Evidence of flat water.
But a full night of rest will work too. Just pretty excited right now. I’m only 5 miles from Illinois and 150 miles from the Mississippi. Things are moving pretty steady finally and it feels good.

That’s pretty awesome! You’re doing awesome! So proud of you! The next idea for you and your brother i believe will take you far. Get to Florida so you can both agree on it! Never seen either one of my sons as happy as they are now! I love you both more than anything! Stay safe!
