Day 23, Tuesday, October 4
0500-Last day of the trip. 54F/56F. Much warmer here this morning than yesterday! Solar 79%.
0630-Finished Bible study. Verse for the day is "When all has been heard, the end of the matter is: fear God [worship Him with awe-filled reverence, knowing that He is almighty God] and keep His commandments, for this applies to every person." (Ecclesiastes 12:13 Amplified Bible)
0715-Finished dishes after breakfast. Will be on my way by 0730.
1230-Stopped for lunch in Rhinelander, WI. This time I chose to get off the highway and check it out. It was only a short distance to Culver's, a favorite.

1630-Arrived home in White Bear lake and discovered a flat on the right rear tandem wheel. Unloaded the gear and parked across the street until I could fix the tire. Nothing like ending with a bang! At least it did not occur on the drive. The puncture was on the sidewall and could not be repaired. Had to buy a new tire. Lesson learned, carry a spare tire, even with tandem axles.
My longest trip to date comes to a close. Though weather was generally poor and presented a challenge to ensure food did not spoil, the trip was still a pleasurable adventure, the reason I go in the first place!
