Day 4 9/22

I slept fitfully camping last night.  I called ahead and the owner said to just pitch my tent, he would be gone for the evening, and that there was a shower.   After pitching my tent, I headed to the shower but he forgot to turn the water on.  Through the night the crickets and bullfrogs were as loud as the Trump campers of a few nights prior.  Another poor night's sleep.

I got packed up and started late at 9:30 am.  The route was again lightly traveled roads through farm country.  It was another hot day with temperatures in the low 90s.  After riding only 35 miles  I was tapped out from the heat and sleep deprivation. I made it to a campground near Mormon, IN, where there was running water and a shower!  I was due for a break.
