Days 17 and 18: Booneville, KY to Springfield, KY.

Miles on Day 17: 67.
Miles on Day 18: 69.

We broke 1000 total miles today! The terrain is getting easier (i.e. less uphill climbs), so as long as the wind's not blowing against us, as it was today of course, we're much happier. Not much to talk about from the last two days, just a couple picnic lunches in the middle of a road and some bike trouble that took us off the route for a while today. We've discovered ginger ale here in Kentucky called Ale-81, pronounced (as explained on the label) "A late one", and we've been drinking it at every opportunity. I've also discovered that I have allergies. Thanks, Kentucky. That made today fun. Met Britni and George today, two eastbounders going from Pueblo, CO to somewhere in Kentucky. Tired tonight, I'll write a better post tomorrow!
