We did it! On the road at 3:38 am. See the pictures at the bottom of us riding in the dark. It allowed us to get in 25 miles without traffic or heat. We stopped in a little town, Butler, MO. and met the owner of Mo-Kan Livestock, Jim Herzog. He directed us to his restaurant through his stock yards. See us in the auction ring. Breakfast was all home cooked. Lunch was equally as much fun. At McBee's Bratwurst we met the owner's son-in-law, Jason, who was running the store. The store smelled so good from all the brats they make and cook. As we ordered one brat a piece for our dinner along with baked beans and potato salad, Jason proceeded to load us up on 3 more packages of brats along with pepperoni sticks and summer sausage. We had to figure out how to carry it all - we did!
It was hot by the time we finished at 1:30 pm with 57 miles under our belts. We stayed in the cabins you see in the picture. They were originally built for workers from a coal-fired power plant about a mile away. Now they are rental AirBnB's. Our dinner was amazing. The man working on cabins gave us charcol and lighter fluid. Our adventures continue.
