We toured more houses at Nauvoo for a few hours. Then we went to the wagon ride (thanks to Brian who got up at 6:45, rode a bike to the Visitor’s Center, waited in line, and successfully got the tickets for us!) We highly recommend the wagon ride if you ever come to Nauvoo; it took us around the city and the sister missionary explained the houses and history of the city along the way. We parted ways around 2 pm: some went to the temple for baptisms while others went to the Rivers and Showboats show.
At around 5 pm we headed eastward. We saw many large fields of corn and many silos on the farms, these seem to be much larger than previous states we’ve passed through. Along our journey on the I74, we heard a large bang and Brian precisely and skillfully maneuvered to the side of the road. We blew one of our rear inside tires. We limped a mile and a half to the next town to a tire shop where we hope at 8 am tomorrow will fix our tire. Lights out tonight at 10 pm in the tire shop’s parking lot (we’re first in line).
