Day 64 and 65

Day 64 and 65
The last two days have been more of the same less than enjoyable weather. The wind has continued to blow hard from the south both day and night. The days and the nights have also been filled with small rain clouds and big organized thunderstorms. The winds have forced me to spend all day fighting for miles and the nights have been a series of naps interrupted by the never ending storms. This part of the river through the boot heel of Missouri is very rural area with almost no towns or businesses along the river. The wildlife and barges seem to have decided to take a week off because of the crappy weather pattern as well. I will be happy to reach Memphis were I will meet family, friends and some of the staff of the Wolf River Conservancy. I am looking forward to next week when the weather is set to change, temps and humidity are set to be lower than average for this time of year.
