Our ride started with a steep 1.5 mile climb, then transitioned to somewhat moderate hills with a gentle tail wind. We took a smaller, county road to visit the Shiloh National Military Park.
Our mid-morning coffee stop was advertised by this sign board, Too bad about the "N".
Otha's proved to be one of our more interesting stops. Miss Otha, 82, retired and sold the business to Nana and her daughter.
Nana was busy preparing the noon meal, the $6.50 plate lunch advertised. Today's lunch featured sliced, baked potatoes, pork steaks, and other sides.
