June 29 Lewistown Day 29 75 miles, 7:10 riding
Another grueling day! Instead of headwind, heat. Lewistown reported 100 degrees. Up-and-down terrain all day. Seldom a tree in sight. Near Brooks, I pleaded for cold water at a farm house. I ran the hose on my head and drank deeply of the cold water. That refreshed me. I eventually got Michele to pour a bottle of water on her head and then she squirted Roy with cold water. I soaked my shirt at the next farmhouse. We were exhausted by the time we crawled into Lewistown. If you get to Lewistown, it's Harry's Place for dinner if you're hungry. The steak comes with soup, salad bar, potato, and fruit pie or cobbler for dessert.
