On the road again!
Well, the day started off alright. I was dropped off right outside of Wilbur where Jeana and Shane picked me up. They are keeping BeadMW for me for a few days so I don't have to push her around. Today is a 27 mile day into the town of Davenport where I will be staying at Morgan Street B&B for the night. I stopped at Crestin at the Corner Cafe for a fantastic breakfast of cinnamon swirl, french toast and a nice little break and then began my day.
Not far into it, I began to realize that I was still pretty weak from not being able to eat much yesterday and I tried eating a protein bar. However it did not sit well with me and it made me not too excited to eat much of anything the rest of the day. I drank as much water as I could, finishing nearly 5 liters, but it wasn't enough. The day felt like it went on FOREVER, didn't help that it was such a long day either. By the time I got into Davenport, I was completely done. Thank goodness for my next host, Nancy, took me to the store and I got some food for dinner and went back to the hotel and took a hot bath and realized I was shaking like a leaf, and had really crazy goose-bumps that wouldn't go away even though I wasn't cold. I realized how sick I had made myself, and decided I needed to eat all my food I bought so I could sleep through the night. So I ate my banana, turkey sandwich, drank my ice-cold milk and finished off another liter of Powerade and was a sleep before 7:30. I was so happy to have such a nice place to stay, and that my food stayed down...
