Barb at the Westby Bakery & Coffee Shop gave me a bunch of delicious pastries for the road!
First, Christian and his dad pulled up beside me in their truck to give me some words of encouragement. A little while later, Christian tracked me down in his car to offer some financial support.
A little while after that, Christian's dad tracked me down again, this time to give me the food and beverages you see pictured. This was the first time I drank a beer while pushing the cart.
Also, LaCrosse Lager: the real Old Style?
I walked until later than usual last night, but they graciously accommodated me, letting me stay in their trailer to avoid the thunderstorms (which never actually materialized). This morning they sent me off with some goodies for the road, including homegrown (and handpicked by me!) lettuce, spinach, and rhubarb.
