Freedom Tour Day #6

Here are some more pictures from Day #6 of the Freedom Tour. It was an enjoyable 65 miles today. We were in no rush so we saw a lot of sights, braked often enough but not too much, and then got some awesome pool time in!

We hit a new state - that is always exciting right?

Local Lock and Dam on the Tennessee Tombigbee Waterway. A sailboat was coming up river to use the locks but we pressed on!

Steamship that was used to clear river debris. One of the last active ones but it is retired now!

This church began right after the Civil War ended. That is one long church history filled with some interesting stories I bet. They had just recently built a new building right next door so it must still be flourishing!


The Tennessee Tombigbee Waterway from Mississippi this time.

All in all it was a great day on the bike again. I don't think I fully appreciate and/or understand what a blessing it is that I am able to do this. I just smile and pedal onward to home.

Thanks for stopping by - now get out and ride your bike!
