Day 135 - Coshocton to Zanesville
| Heart | 0 | Comment | 0 | Link |
We've reached to end of Two Far 2022. We arrived in Zanesville today. We have a day to rest and gear down from cycling mode before the reunion activities start the day after tomorrow.
Our route today was only 33 miles. It was nice to have these two short days at the end. There were enough hills and headwinds to keep us from taking it too easy. Except for the wind direction, it was another beautiful day. We are ending this tour at exactly the right time, I think. The temperature this morning was in the mid 60's and it got up to the mid 80's. Beginning tomorrow, the next several days have lows in the 40's and highs in the mid 60's. It is time to head back to Florida!
I took only a few pictures today. This is the Muskingum River at Coshocton. It is known locally as the "muddy Muskingum" for good reason.

Florida is waiting for you. We have 60's during the night and 80's &
low 90's sometimes at daytime. We are preparing for this storm
Hermine coming to Florida this coming week. Come back home safely.

It is good to see crops coming the full cycle. We're not usually still on the road when the corn we saw as little green shoots in the spring is ready for harvest.
One more house being reclaimed by Mother Nature.
At one point, we missed a turn and decided to take the next road going in the right direction. This looked like a nice alternative until maybe a tenth of a mile farther on when the surface became large, loose gravel. We decided to go back to the mail road.

In Muskingum County now, home of the West Muskingum High School Tornadoes.
Our last stop on this tour led to our meeting Elizabeth Taylor! She is a clerk in the market where we took our last Diet Coke break of Two Far 2022. She came out of the store to see the bike and see us off.
And we made it to our hotel with no flat tires, no accidents, no illnesses and no injuries. There was that little broken fork incident that ended up costing us three weeks, but that doesn't seem so important now.
