We are in Garnett, Kansas right now but moving on. This is the third town we have rode through today. We hope to at least make it to a small town to camp at.
Last night we camped at a farm where we saw turkeys, chicken, deer, goats and horses. Waji was ok with the deer but a little nervous around the turkeys and chicken. Before we bunked down for the night, Waji watched the horses for hours from the comfort of my lap.
This is the story of my cat, Waji and myself. It will tell you of our adventures, show pictures of Waji, and give you links to purchase children's books about us that I wrote if you so desire.

Bike Tire Blow Out This Time
The front tire on the bike blew out this time as we were going downhill, so we had a spill. Waji is fine but my feet and lower legs got scraped up. A little hard to walk so not sure how riding bike will be. So we are going to go to a nearby town where someone said they were having a festival this weekend. Probably will spend a couple days there so I can recoup. At least we had a spare tire for the bike along so I do not need to go looking for one.

Geez!
Other tire on trailer blew out today but is now fixed. Also lost a pin for trailer so did a temporary fix since there was no part to be found in the town I'm in. Hopefully it will hold up until I get to the next big town and get it replaced with the proper part.
