Miles today: 100.
Total miles: 2021.
Second century in a row and we broke 2000 miles! Today Kansas actually showed me some redeeming qualities. Had three meals in three different cafes with three different exceptionally nice ladies serving us. Scattered thunderstorms rained on us off and on all day, but at least the heat index was only 86 instead of yesterday's 110ish! The sky was actually really beautiful today. Clouds filtering the sunlight muted the colors of the open fields, which made for some amazing scenery, and it was interesting to be able to see the storms for miles over the flat Kansas terrain. I also got to enjoy a lot of one of my new favorite activities: passing by a field full of cows and seeing how many I can get to maintain eye contact with me until I've passed. I'm sure none of you know what I'm talking about, but it really is funny to see 30 heads slowly turning in unison to follow me. Super tired again and sleep is long overdue! Here's hoping tomorrow is as beautiful as today was...
