Perfect Day on the Bike (almost)

Harold had his third flat tire! Everything else was just great today. Woke up to temp of 41 so had to put on a few extra layers of clothes to start riding. By noon it was sunny and hot once again. Had hills again but they didn't have stop signs and traffic lights at the bottom of the hills. So the hills were actually fun and invigorating, with downward speeds of 36 mph. We rode 72 miles today and once again couldn't find a campground. A family has allowed us to set up our tents in front of their property in Bonify, Florida. We are more than one day ahead of the planned schedule. We have traveled 653 miles so far!
Shrimp and tofu are cooking for supper. Dave will leave us in a couple of days then we will be scouting for our own camping facilities and picking up food along the way. Dave goes ahead and does all the begging for us now.
Love hearing from everyone. Keep it up. Haven't been taking any pictures because everything looks like any place in Michigan. Little towns look the same everywhere. People are fun to meet. They all want to talk to us about what we are doing. We passed into Central Time Zone this morning.
