Life on the road. The last few days I've just been putting my time in to get through the plains with the trains keeping me company. Small towns every 20 to 30 miles courtesy of the railroad. Allot of these towns popped up every 10 miles or so because thats how often the railroad engines needed water and it all happened around 1910 which makes this year the Centennail for Chester with a big celebration going on in town this Fourth of July weekend.


A concert, dance I took in last night after bucking 30 to 40 mph headwinds winds. The strongest I've had so far. They tapered off as the day grew on and descended to 10 to 15 for a much needed break.
A fun run this morning was part of the Chester festivities. Which I happened to walk into on the way to the pancake breakfast at the Lutheran church. Heck, I  might as well enter it.  Luckily it was only 3  miles and  was able to pull it off.
The Parade followed the Run.
