28 Oct 2008, Merryville, LA

Another pretty mundane day. I did have my second flat, though. I'm camping at the Merryville Historical Society & Museum, which opens its doors to cyclists traveling through the area. The MHS secretary, Linda, met me here & gave me the full tour. She was obviously proud of the artifacts & the work done to collect & restore them. I wouldn't say she did the best job of making it all interesting—her comments were either stating the obvious ("These are military uniforms") or irrelevant minutae (who donated the old clarinet for the high school band showcase).

Anyway, a hot shower is, as always, appreciated. I'm walking over to the post office to mail a postcard & see if I can get enough reception to call home.
