The sunset last night from my campsite.

The leader of the kayak racers just pulled in for some supplies. Salli O’Donnell leads the race. Fifteen minutes after she left the second can through, I don’t remember his name.




9:09 AM 

A breakfast burrito from the camp store while visiting and watching the race and I’m ready to go.


11:41 AM 

I can see the dome in Jefferson City up ahead on the right.

11:58 AM 

North Jefferson City.

I’ve decided to stay in Portland at the Riverside Campground. The Dooly family is also staying here for the night. A father and two young daughters are riding the Trail to St George. This campground is small, shaded, and has a clean bathroom with a shower. The only other thing in town is a small bar/cafe. The food is good and right next to the campground.

8:12 PM

I am now ready for bed.
