Day 23 - 72.73 Miles
The Sun Does Shine in Missouri
Ash Grove, MO
For a while there, we were pretty sure a black cloud had mistaken one of us for Linus - maybe it's cause we smell so bad. Luckily, we had a dry day over the last of the rolling hills in the Ozarks. Oh, we forgot to mention that as we rolled into the church we stayed at the night before, the sign read, "God gave ten commandments, not ten suggestions." We thought that was pretty good, but found that a miracle had occured during the night, as we rolled out to read, "Prevent Truth Decay: Brush up on Your Bible." Easily one of the best. We ate at a fish house in Ash Grove - probably not the best idea since we're as far from an ocean as you could be on this planet. Needless to say, the catfish patties and fake crab meat didn't exactly satisfy our seafood craving. (Sorry, Koko, that's really the best "delicacy" they had).

I passed your Kentucky anecdote along to a friend who hails from the Bluegrass State. Her response: "cute… so true. but they don't mention how wonderful and genuinely nice the people are down there. that is what I really miss."
Whatever, baby.
Whatever, baby.

Hey Johnathan! Just so you know. While you and your friend are slogging o'er hill and vale, your parents are lounging by the pool at Wesley and Babeth's house...
Anyway, just a quick hello from France (country of cheese and wine and head-butts); you've gone international guys..!
Good luck, and no seventh day business, no rest for the wicked, remember...
Ivan.

Come on guys - are you telling me there are just NO Jews who can put you up in a synagogue or are there just No Jews in these states? Maybe it's you two - don't forget, we Jews are a bit sensitive, so don't refer to as Jews - we like to say, "We're Jew 'ish' "
Here's hoping you find some nice airconditioned temples w/ good bagels and lox to offer. I might have to send out the bike tripper spin meisters.
Love,
Carrie
