Lula, MS to Winona, MS

Today we road 114 miles for an average speed of 18 miles per hour. Really fast day. Above photos (thanks to some great photos from Ken's website) are the cotton fields and a bail of cotton I talked about yesterday. I even picked some cotton today to bring home to Cade, Casey and Cale.

I visited with some people in MS at a local Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant about being screened for breast cancer, and talked to some women working behind the counter who had never been screened. So I had to give them the ABCF website address and explain how the screening process works. Afterwards an older man walked up to me and said "I was listening to your conversation and my wife is a breast cancer survivor..., and I would like to give this $10.00 to the foundation." I will tell you all, that I am on this ride for a special reason, and that is to meet people like I met today, and across this nation to tell the ABCF story. I am so blessed to have this experience. I only have 6 more days left on this tour and excited who I will meet next.

I will also share with you that people I am meeting along this tour are becoming my friends. The whole world should operate like the PACTOUR. Things operate smoothly, everyone meets everyone half way, they respect each other and sensitive to each others needs.

Other photos attached are the Mississippi River and the bridge crossing the river into MS.

Love,

Donna/Mom
