We were slow this morning.I wanted to finish yesterday's blog and also put in a call to USCIS to see what can be done to progress my Green Card application. This is still stuck with the biometrics appointment and I have not yet received a revised appointment date since January 2021. Please keep this in your prayers, as I must now wait for somebody of the USCIS-office to call me in the next 14 days to arrange a time. With the cycling I may miss this call and I am asking that you pray that the call will come through where I shall receive it and where I can answer it safely.

We liked this sculpture within the show grounds close to where we camped.
Today was probably the toughest day we had so far. We were still able to complete close to 40 miles, but that was due to utter perseverance. We had a southwester in our faces the whole day. It was blowing at 10-20 miles an hour with much stronger gusts in between. The slow speed started as we left Atlantic up to Underwood.
We passed this remembrance sign for a plane crash during the Second World War. Just look at the flag. The propellors were singing in the wind.

We walked acroos the street to the Hancock Memorial Park for a rest and something to eat for lunch.
I was too tired to sit up straight and even ate food while lying down - a big "No" when we grew up.
The afternoon consisted of pedaling downhill and pushing uphill about 30-40% of the hills. The wind was relentless.
Christine took some barn-photos.

We also looked at our route ahead and decided to cut out Lincoln, Nebraska and take a shorter route to Norfolk, Nebraska, the start of the Cowboy Trail.
