It was only the sixth day of the 93 day trip. We had a rest day in Winthrop the next day. I was the last one to reach the KOA. The owner sold $0.99 beers. Tasted divine after that day. No one wanted to shop and cook that night so we all went out for pizza. Someone made a cogent observation: It was the first time during the trip that we were sitting in chairs with backs, at least while eating.
