According to Melinda Guettner, in reference to the photo above, “***UPDATE 7/12, 7:30 a.m. – Due to heavy rains and strong winds this morning we have moved the drinks and snacks to the front porch of the store. We have received 3 inches of rain and have lots of flooding. Please be careful! ”
The 72 hour update has Richard past Linden at 139 miles. He maintains his same place among the other competitors. Let’s all hope the weather doesn’t get the best of anyone out there on the road. I am sure it is a struggle!
