Day 5, Delaware to Butler, Saturday June 12

57 miles :: trip total 192 miles   Luftberg Farm B&B

Today was a too long, very warm day. We took few pictures. 
 
 
In this section of Ohio, small country stores and many restaurant doors have been shuttered, if not by earlier hard times, by the "long-year" of Covid. Those that remain open display help-wanted signs. 
 
By the end of the day, we had entered hill country: the rides down hills were exhilarating and cooling, and the rides up were made easier with our small front wheel motors. We believe we could not do this trip without them. 
 
 
We arrived about 7:00 at the Luftberg Farm B&B after eating dinner in Butler at the Whiffle Tree--where young staff seemed to be in a pleasant frenzy trying to get every order in order.   At the B&B, our gracious hosts, Jen and Brian (retired nurse and high school science teacher), welcomed us warmly. Their beautiful home on 38 acres commands a stunning view of the nearby Amish farms below. 
 
We slept soundly.
