Observations from the road:
Illinois had the friendliest drivers
Nebraska was the loneliest state
Illinois had the jerkiest cops
Missouri was the prettiest state
Colorado was the most majestic state
Generally people were very kind
Missouri had the worst drivers
Easier to get drivers to pick me up in Illinois
Pastors seemed to be the least hospitable people
Quincy, Illinois was the friendliest city so far
Aurora, NE had the friendliest cops
The Mahnken Ranch in Salisbury MO: I spent the most time in one place
Worst night: Astoria, Illinois. Had to sleep in the gazebo located in the town square. Slept on the cold concrete with the wind howling out of the north making it around 25 degrees. Then a sheriff's deputy kicked me in the ribs around 2am told me I was breaking the law sleeping there
Best all around meal(s): Peg Haerr in Taylor MO. Unbelievable food!
Strangest event: Monica from Quincy pulled over on Rt 24 near Rushville, IL and offered to drive me to the next town and offered me a back massage. Stayed with her for 2 weeks
Most dangerous moment: nearly fell over backwards off bridge over a creek near Quincy, IL when I sat down on the ledge
