Cell service!

Well we finally did find a little bit of reception. Just about the time we hit the 900 mile mark on the Ohio River that means we have less than 81 miles to go to get to the Mississippi. First day on the river yesterday was amazing. We had lots of firsts including we paddled about 40 miles. That’s the most we’ve ever done in a day. We were also able to use our wind sale and that move this along though we realize not as fast is when we’re paddling strongly. Today we still have some tailwinds which were taking advantage of with the sale again but by this afternoon a storm will come in and we may be grounded. Locals are saying it may rain until Friday. But meanwhile it’s been amazing so far and we are grateful for all the people who have helped us along the way. Especially those who let us camp at their campground last night and shower and prepare our dinner in their air conditioned house a.k.a. bar. Here are a few pictures from today. A memorial to the florist spire minors and the quick stop at a local café

  1. Wonderful! There’s something lovely in knowing that while I’m here working, you’re out there on the river. I’m living vicariously. 🙂
