By the time I reached these grain silos, about three miles into the day, I could tell that the day off that Paul & Carol hosted me to the day before brought a blaze to my path today. I was hot to trot, and on pace to finish the day’s walk over an hour early. Before parting ways today, I told them it would take me at least 5.5 hours. In a very rare move, by the time I reached these silos I called to tell them that I’d probably arrive at least an hour early– which is exactly how the day turned out.
