Mississippi has 2 K's in it now, too.

You remember the rhyme about the number of the letter I, S and P in Mississippi? Well we need a new one as we added two Ks today. That's 2000 miles and four fifths done.
A simple, smooth, fast run half across the small state of Mississippi on highway 84 between Natchez and Monticello, MS.  There are many towns called Monticello but Google searches always leaves the one in Mississippi to last. Even the road signs ignored it until 20 miles away and it was the next place on the highway. On arrival it is perhaps easy to see why. Our motel is the Pleasure Point Inn which does sound vaguely as if it may be a house of ill repute but the room is really nice as is the proprietor.
As we covered the 83 miles to here before lunch and check in time we were able to avail ourselves of the all you can eat pizza and salad buffet in town. Keith still slightly below par but Chris manage to eat an extra portion for him too.

Cycling early morning it is hard to realise how little the drivers may be able to see of us. 

Luckily it is two lane highway and the big trucks mostly give us a wide berth. 

That second millennial moment occurred next to the legendary lost graveyard of the school bus:-
