Day 40-An End To The Mizzouri
Miles Completed Today: 78
Total Miles Completed: 2643
Miles To Go: 1057
Relaxing yesterday in St. Louis refreshed Sean & Pat as we visited the Arch and downtown, hit a shopping mall, saw a movie, reloaded at Costco, and generally took it easy. At the Jefferson National Memorial (the Arch) we biked around, saw the Lewis & Clark statue (including Lewis' dog, Seaman who made the journey with them) and toured the museum. Unfortunately, that Harry Potter addiction took its toll again and they stayed up reading until 2:00 AM under his spell. After a morning laundry stop, they headed east from Farmington, MO at 11:30 AM to Chester, Ill. on Routes OO, F, B, P, N, Z, H, and 51. The abysmal road signs and shoulder-free Missouri roads will not be missed! Once across the mighty Mississippi, we cruised southeast on the levee toward Rockwood and then cut east to Murphysboro, Ill., where we spent the night at Murphysboro State Park.
