Day 29: Sunday, May 8, 2011

55 miles to My Old Kentucky Home State Park campground, Bardstown, KY
It’s so nice to be out of the mountains!  Can’t stress that enough.  The ride today was much like yesterday except the weather was much nicer.  We stopped at the Lincoln Homestead State Park where Lincoln’s parents were married.  While there, we met Sylvia, who is bicycling to Portland, Oregon on her tricycle.  She bills herself as the world’s slowest cyclist and has been traveling around the world by cycle for several years.  Check out her website, myrtletheturtle.me.  I am sure we will see her again on the route.

Bardstown has numerous sites to see, so we are going to take a day off to visit.

Happy Mother’s Day to all.

These signs are ubiquitous when there are more than 3 houses within 3 miles.
