Day 8: 4/25/21: Lake of the Ozarks State Park to Windsor, MO

 I guess the steeper hills yesterday wore me out because I slept really well last night.

Took a pic of this rig on my way out of the campground this morning.  It was fun watching all the other RVers watching with envy as they pulled through the campground last night.  I wonder if the canoe is ever used or is it just a prop.


Ate breakfast at the Rusty Rooster Cafe in Lake Ozark, MO.  It is a happening place and the food was delicious.

My coffee mug there.  


My travel today took me through Osage City, Lake Ozark, Versailles, and Cole Camp.

Below are some pics around downtown Versailles and some information about the county.






Below are some pics around Cole Camp.



That's not very nice.  I wonder how they really feel about the folks at the intersection below. :)


Below is a pic of St. Johns Lutheran Church outside Cole Camp.  Very pretty church building out in the middle of nowhere.


The hills got smaller and smaller as the day went by.



I decided to stop tonight at Farrington Park in Windsor, MO.  As I rolled in Kyle (pic below) was already there relaxing.  He is from Kansas City and is on his first bicycle tour.  He rode the Rock Island Spur Trail from near KC to Windsor, and will then ride the Katy Trail to St. Louis.  Both trails are rails to trails with only bicycle and pedestrian traffic.  He is then going to take an Amtrak train back to KC.


My campsite tonight.


Total miles today: 84.2

  1. The architecture of that courthouse and the church are amazing! It must take quite an effort in maintenance and money to keep those two places standing. And you seem to have a theme going for the day with the clucker coffee cup and the intersection of F and U! Thanks for writing the blog, because it is so enjoyable to read!
