Quick Update: Weather AGAIN

We got to Cairo (not Egypt) which is where confluence of the Ohio River and the Mississippi River is. Sadly the weather has caught up with us again. The weather is supposed to go down to dangerously low temperatures and is no longer safe for us to paddle for now. We will be staying in Carbondale, which is about an hour north of Cairo. Our guide, Cory, went to grad school in Carbondale and has many connections and was able to get us to stay in a house that is currently being remodeled. We will be moved to a cabin that Southern Illinois University owns in a nature center called Touch of Nature. We don't know when we will be back on the water, but we are already making lots of friends willing to help us out!
