I had a super restful night's sleep last night. I woke up at some point to use the bathroom. I have no clue what time it was, but it was pitch dark. I went back to sleep and it seemed almost immediately the birds started to chirp. The birds are my alarm clock when I'm on a bike trip because they really get loud about daybreak. This morning I thought to myself these birds are nuts because it can't be 5 a.m. yet. Once again the birds were right. It was 5:15. I got up and packed everything just before a thunderstorm hit.
This morning the hill climb out of the campground didn't seem bad. I guess I was just exhausted when I hit it yesterday. I suppose as Jackson Browne sang, I was "Running on Empty," which was playing when I stopped by Walmart this morning.
It rained on me almost the entire morning, so I was not able to take any pictures. Pics below were similar to most of my views today.
While pedaling uphills I have plenty of time to enjoy the roadside beauties such as those pictured below.
