This is route 150. I spent the night at the barn with my girlfriends. We had a great time celebrating Kellee's birthday and working on our projects. Nikki rode home with me. It was nice to have company while I was driving.

Day 335, Friday, December 1, 2017
Unfortunately, my potassium is low. I took 4 potassium pills Wednesday and they came out whole, so now I have to drink powdered potassium. This is the second cup this morning. But I do get to go home, today!
