Day 22: Springfield MO

Ended up taking my own advice and stayed an extra day with Doug and Rae. In the morning I took my bike to the shop to borrow a quality pump and use their stand to clean off dirt from the past week. Then to a library to spend a few hours downloading new podcasts, audiobooks, and most importantly, planning for the next few nights. 

This afternoon I sat in a coffee shop and read a book. Pretty soon the book turned into the back of my eyelids, and I awoke to a couple of Missouri State students asking if I was ok. We chatted over coffee for a little. 

Pretty flat riding for the next week into the Heartland. The mileage will probably go up after tomorrow.
