Dauphine Island, AL - rest day

It's been 10 days since our last rest day. Everyone was looking forward to this, especially after the long wet ride on the previous day.

I visited Fort Gaines in the morning. This was a strategic base for the Confederacy.  It is now a privately supported museum, and quite interesting. 

Spent the afternoon cleaning up the bike, taking a nap, getting a massage, and enjoying a couple beers. This morning, the skies had cleared, though we still had a very strong north wind.  By afternoon, things began to dry out from the storms of the prior 2 days.

I feel well rested and ready for tomorrow's 84 mile into Florida.
