Had lunch at The Farmer’s Table restaurant. Talked to the owner of the restaurant who also owns the farm that the food comes from. He used to work in the coal mines but now runs the farm and restaurant. COVID has been making it difficult to keep the restaurant open.

George (Buddy) HallI'm enjoying reading about your adventure and remembering my own Transam journey in 2015. The Transam was my first major tour, and so it will always have a special place in my memories. As I read your tale of each day, I have my journal open in another tab and I look at it to see familiar places where we both stayed and rode through. Looking forward to the remainder of your posts - Buddy
