Day 14: The Wind At My Back

A fairly strong wind followed me for most of the day today. It felt great and helped me keep my pace.

I found a baby bird on the side of the road sitting next to it's nest. It had been blown out of a tree so I used a few sticks to scoop it back into the nest and placed it at the base of the tree. What else could I have done?

That bird was the only other living soul to cross my path today until a man on a bicycle stopped to say hello. He had seen me in Traverse City last week... in fact, I had stopped him to ask for directions. It really is a small world that we live in.

I crossed the 300 mile mark yesterday.
