Hi!
Our first leg out of Cameron, MO was to Carbondale, IL. The folks were so helpful in both places. The young ladies, our Baby Birds, who we are mentoring for this race are from Carbondale - home of Southern Illinois University. The girls gave us SIU t-shirts and pens. They even called ahead so that we had someone local to talk to about lunch, etc. After lunch, we had a window of opportunity to make it to Elkhart, IN between thunderstorms. We did - thank goodness!
The storm came in as we were out to dinner with the Carastro's "kin folk" as Mama calls them. The power went out and the emergency generator came on at the restaurant. We waited for most of the storm to pass on through before swinging by the airport to see if the planes were put in to hangars and then back to the hotel for a good night sleep.
