| Windmills above Rock Port, Missouri |
We are currently camped out at a KOA west of Rock Port, Missouri, awaiting some new trailer tires. The campground hosts are treating us very well and the weather is beautiful. The campground is nice and flat - a good place to practice my bicycle riding.
Rock Port is a small town of around 1400 people about 8 miles east of the Missouri River. It was the first community in the nation to convert entirely to wind power. It is the county seat of Atchison County, which is the very northwest corner of Missouri.

| Charity Lake |
Fall is certainly in the air. Yesterday, we took a short drive to the Brickyard Hill Conservation Area about 5 miles up the interstate and hiked around Charity Lake, enjoying the fresh air and the crunch of leaves under our feet. We were too noisy to see any of the local deer or wild turkeys.
