From hutchison ks to a county park 8 mi east of newton ks, 54.5 mi, total 1965 mi. Rode into a headwind all day. .ore humidity and green lushness, I've left behind the semiarid, ranching west kansas. Met a group of five 20-somethings in newton on their way to astoria...the young ones usually are more unkempt and frayed and have less piled on their bikes than older folks and I've noticed they're less judgmental about what they've experienced...more wide-eyed wonder about what they're doing.
I saw, east of hesston, a sunflower farm, a sea of blazing yellow! West of hesston I came upon a large turtle and watched him trudge across the road.
I'm in a campground that appears to be used for drug deals.
I hope the wind settles a bit before I arise in the morning and trudge on. I'm beyond half the distance to reston.

From the Lutheran Church to the drug dealing campground . . . sounds like the dichotomy where I work!!
