Still moving kind of slow and careful after that nasty fall, but I think all the bones are working...not 100% certain yet but hey, good enough for now. Getting ready to go get a shower and maybe come back out and watch a movie before resuming the journey. Don't have to be to Reeseville WI till 10am, and thats only about 5 hours or so... Been taking it real easy, feel like I've been in a fight with a really big guy...and maybe won, but ya know when you get in a fight like that even the winner feels it for a day or two. Just have to be very careful to set each foot down slow and straight. Mrs. Bean will mend the tear in the britches, thats a good thing.

Sitting here in Springfield Illinois at the moment. This town was the home of Abraham Lincoln , Springfield became the Illinois state capital in 1837 with the help of a young lawyer and politician named Abraham Lincoln. He lived in the city until he left to become the 16th President of the United States, in 1861. Chicago lies 200 miles northeast of Springfield, St. Louis and Indianapolis lie 100 miles southwest and 195 miles due east, respectively.

Haven't had a chance to read in my book much "sacketts land"...and the other book I'm reading "Life's instruction manual, the one you should have been given at birth" or something like that...its extremely awesome, I highly recommend every parent buy one for themselves and each child.
