highs & lows - the UGRR





Now Thursday May 1st and we've just completed our 5th day - 60 miles from the campsite beside the Tombigbee River outside Coffeeville , AL . And what a campsite it was.

Today considerable wind assistance and nothing like the truck ( or any ) traffic of yesterday. That was a hard day ( 58 miles ) and on a pretty busy logging truck route. Made good time , though, averaging around 10mph and a lovely 2 hour plus stop in Grove Hill for lunch .

Lots of highs and lows - as illustrated by the 2 photos of Mary resting - one at Atlanta Greyound terminal at 2 am and the other beside a lovely stretch of road between Coffeeville & Linden .

Next entry hopefully from Aliceville AL.
