Day 5--75 miles

Today we conquered three mountains, one of which was the highest point east of the Mississippi...on Interstate 80 (or so we're told). The day went pretty well. Lisa and Freda were the first to arrive at a motorcycle crash scene. Even though the local EMS came quickly, we're pretty sure they played a key role in the man's survival.



In the meantime, Melissa had ridden ahead to arrange showers at the local YMCA. There, she met a very kind man named Lee Meyers. Thanks for all of your advice, Lee! We're extremely grateful for all of your help that night.







By some miraculous and magical chance, we arrived in DuBois, PA, just in time for the town's annual celebration, which is called Community Days. Oh my gosh, FAIR FOOD. Nuff said. There's so much to say about DuBois that we want to devote an entire post to it. More to come.
