There was at least one place on the road where the farm was close enough to smell, if not see. Wasn't sure what it was at first as I'd never before been in an area with plants so concentrated you could smell them without first being cured and burned. :deal

At a rest stop maybe 10 miles out of Honeydew someone was riding up on his 70's era dirt bike. He stopped just long enough to comment that our bikes were "too pretty for this road" then took off. Probably needed to tend his farm. :groovy
