October 1, 2010 - Marion to Diamond Lake, KY

Today's ride was about 50 miles and really not too hard.  We rode through lots of small towns and still had some hills.  We did have a pretty strong north wind which made the ride a bit more difficult than it would have been without the wind.  Dana and I went with Fran and Donna to Diamond Lake and Lisa rode on to Utica, KY where she camped outside the fire station.  Diamond Lake is a beautiful RV park SW of Owensboro, and is run by great people.  We had a fun surprise with Andreas deciding to rent a car in Tennessee and join us for dinner and the evening!  Andreas drove back to TN the next morning (cutting out several of what he had decided were dangerous miles he didn't want to do on a bike) and we rode in the RV/car to Bowling Green, KY to get a part at Camping World for the RV.  We will spend the next few days with my cousins at their beautiful farm in Big Clifty, KY.
