Almost End of Katy Trail

Hi i am in Pilot Grove Missouri. I am 3 towns from the end of the Katy Trail. Ive been here for 2 days waiting out the rain. Will most likely be hitting the road tomorrow afternoon. Maybe another 2 days of trail then where it ends in Clinton ill have to start taking side roads to head towards Texas. Im almost afraid to leave the trail. Ive met so many nice people and have been really safe on here even though ive not always been able to get internet access ive really liked it.


So when i leave the trail ill be beginning a new adventure. It will be looking for nice people and places where to camp at night. And hoping and praying im safe. Hopefully i can find off roads where theres not a lot of traffic. Ive niot been traveling real fast some due to weather and some due to trail being bad in places then of course there was the issue of me spraining my ankle and having to take a few days off. Ive learned to just hope and pray things go well when i leave one place for the next. Ive been caught in the rain twice and now i check weather before i leave 1 spot for another and i also start around five every afternoon looking for a place to camp that way im set befroe dark. Its takes planning to make things dueable. I do my best to be in a town before dark everynight and if the next towns to far i wait til next day to go to.


Ive been keeping a voice journal so when all this is done and over im going to go over notes and be able to tell everyone nice towns or not. And of course ill be able to accurately describe what ive been thru on this journey. And tell about the poeple ive met.


So far ill have to say though that ive been blessed by the people and places ive been. Ive had help from friends and from my mother whove been a life saver at times. Even my faith has been tested on this adventure. But ive kept my resolve and i still have faith in god and people.
