Drove down to Quincy today. Took I-55 down to Springfield, then, shot over to Quincy on some little highway. Had to pick up my new arrow. After some backcountry rambling, we found the house and picked up the arrow. It’s beautiful. Just what I wanted. So good.

Once the bounty was secured, we headed over the Mississippi and into Missouri. We listened to NPR’s coverage of the congressional races all night long, all the way across rural, northern Missouri.

We got into Kansas City pretty late, bypassed the city and headed out to Lawrence and settled into a hotel for the night. Long day of driving. One more arrow for the ranch out west.
