I had a restful evening at the Dream Acres Campground (Oh
dream acres, I believe you can get me through the night.) It was back to
the cornfields again where I saw farmers hard at work with their
harvesting duties. Almost without exception they waved as I rode by. I
was also greeted with a wave by passing cars and trucks. By and large, Hoosiers
really made me feel welcome.
I felt stronger on the bike today and made it to Ashkum, IL (75 miles), where touring cyclists can camp for free in their village park. That's where I set my tent up for the night.
Tomorrow I will be reach Route 66 and heading southwest.

Aksum and you shall receive (lodging). Good to hear you're finally on the venerable American highway of cultural fame. I wonder if roadside attractions still dot the length of the route as they did in the fifties.
