Day 91 Poplarville to Latimer

Today was another of those "just getting there" days. There wasn't much to see along the way. There were some more cattle farms, but again we didn't see any crops.

We were riding alone today as Team A made their way here from Slidell. We have missed being with them the last two days. And, it is getting hotter and we are getting tireder, but even little hills seem daunting the last couple of days. It is a good thing the flat routes are coming up.

There was only one store close to today's route, which was a very welcome stop. We found churches with shady benches for two other breaks. We're looking forward to our route tomorrow with lots of convenience stores.

Getting there was definitely worth it. We are at another beautiful B&B, the Tux Creek Inn. This is modern home on several acres in a very quiet location north of Biloxi. The owner, Donna, fixed dinner for us and it was delicious. It's so nice to eat "at home" after being on the road all day.
