My time with Daniel and Julie ended with a three-day tour of some of Indiana's college towns: Indiana University to DePauw in Greencastle, and finally to West Lafayette, home of Purdue. This is probably the least interesting part of what passed these two days. After much consideration, I finally decided on the way to Greencastle that I would not continue with Daniel and Julie to Chicago and the West, but would split off from them and head for Iowa. Though they are both wonderful people, we just have different ideas about our goals for the trip, how we travel through these communities, etc. Plus, I am really excited at the prospect of riding across a state by myself.
I broke the news yesterday when we got to Greencastle. The day was memorable for that, a short jaunt to the county fair, and getting to sleep in a bike shop. While Daniel and Julie chose floorspace between the displays, I chose a cozy little spot under a rack of bikes.
