Day 12: Thursday, August 21st:

Maroa to Heyworth: 20 miles: Left from Maroa at 6:20 A.M. Walked thru Clinton, Wapella and on into Heyworth, arriving at 2:15 P.M. Picked up at US 51 and US 136 by my host Gary Simpkins. Gary and his wife Carol are the curators of Simpkins Military History Museum located adjacent to their home. The museum is a truly remarkable collection of military memorabilia from the Civil War to the Afganistan War. I was provided a delicious home cooked meal and a cozy bedroom for the night.
