*Cue dramatic music*

As has been alluded to, we both got the stomach flu. Yay! I'll spare you the details, but it involved several days in a hotel room, one night in a hospital room, and a lot of time in the bathroom. That time was split between Erica being sick in Booneville, then me getting sick 50 miles later in Berea. It sucked. A lot. And it's not really over yet. We've made it two days and a fairly painful 100 miles from Berea, and the bug seems to be lingering, especially for me. It also happens to be one of the hottest late Springs, like ever.

We're still in good spirits, just keeping our eyes on the next day and hoping to keep recovering. It's hard right now, but nobody said it would be easy.


But enough negative! More positive!

We'd like to extend an invitation for you to send us goodies! If you think of something that's vegan, and not too heavy, and not too perishable, you can send it to us at:

Stephen Laurent
GENERAL DELIVERY
1301 E MAIN ST
CARBONDALE, IL 62901-9998

We'll probably be there in about six days.

Thanks to everybody for their support!

  1. Is immodium vegan?

    Just kidding! (I think...) Is there anything specific you have in mind that you'd like to be sent?

  2. BARF. I can't imagine being sick on the road! I hope it didn't ruin Berea for you. Everyone here is so happy that you guys made it through Eastern Kentucky. Howabout that Haighter's Gap?! (Or however you spell it). Any good dog stories?

    Anyway, I'll try to get some goodies your way, I bake on Wednesday. Do you have a favorite recipe or anything in particular you need/want?

  4. Sent package today- hope it gets there when you're there too! Are you going to pick up some extra paniers to carry all your goodies, or just stay in Carbondale til you've eaten most of them?
