Appalachian Adventure Day 10 Nashville to Iowa

Nashville was in our rear view mirror bright and early Saturday morning and we managed to get to St. Louis before noon. We made a quick stop in historic Hannibal, Missouri for lunch, but didn't have the time to visit the Tom Sawyer Caves that I remember from my childhood.

We "bombed it" the rest of the day and rode as far as we could before we had finally had to stop for the night.


We met our waterloo, oddly enough, in Waterloo, Iowa. When we checked the mileage, we realized we'd set a personal best record of 672 miles and celebrated as we sat down to a well-deserved meal and then a good night's sleep.
