Peru to past the Lee County Line: 21 miles: Pushed my three wheel vehicle through the motel property to the highway shoulder and began walking north at 6:00 A.M. Walked past Troy Grove, thru Mendota and stopped for the day at a road intersection three miles north
of the Lee County line (which for reference is at the same latitude as Oswego) at 1:40 P.M. I was picked up by my host, Dennis Weiler, Commander of American Legion Post #657 and brought back to his home in Compton. I will be spending the night in his mother's house next door, as she is presently in a nursing home and have been provided with a bedroom and shower. I will be attending a cook out later this evening with Dennis, his wife Pat and family along with several members of Legion Post #357. I will be turning in early to rest up for tomorrow's trek to Rochelle.
