foggy morning

The next morning Rock Creek was a little foggy, but still beautiful. 

We have a family illness and have decided to leave the Mississippi River Trail for now and head back home.  We are just 28 miles from Davenport, Iowa and this seems like the perfect place to rent a UHaul and load up the trikes and take I-80 West.  We are not sure if and when we will return to finish this trip.  We will update this blog when we make that decision.

Our camp at Rock Creek

What a lovely view from our campsite.  After an effortless ride today, we made camp early and had plenty of time of enjoy the area.

This is my view day after day when Cal is in the lead.

MRT Day 24

Camanche Depot

Found extra time today to see some sites along the MRT trail.

MRT again

After days of being lost, we finally found the MRT trail again.  Actually, this was a perfect riding day.  The weather was great with a little bit of a tail wind and the 54 miles seemed like a breeze.  Maybe it was the day off yesterday that made the difference.
