Day 21: After the rains

Well after 2 days of rain, today we had a beautiful sunny day. It day started with patchy fog as we dropped into river valleys and then climbed back out into the clear. We continued on with renewed vigor just in time to get chased by lots of dogs! We also have realized that the armadillo apparently doesn’t stand a chance on the roads of southern Missouri judging by the amount of them “sleeping” on the shoulder.

There certainly has been some tough, rolling hills through the Ozark plateau and mountains, but we finished the day with a great dinner at Café 37, a funky bisto with great food that feels slightly out of place in rural Missouri.
