Hyannis NE

Yesterday we passed through 3 towns before arriving in Hyannis. The first town, Seneca, was hidden from the road under a downhill. When we got there nothing but the post office was open. In fact the town had a church, park, cafe, and postoffice. I went inside the P.O. to ask for water. The postmaster said she didn't have water and the plumber is supposed to comeon Monday. She told us the park had a well so we filled up there. The next town, Mullen, was larger and we ate lunch there. After eating tater tots and grilled cheese we left only to ride on a bumpy road due to lack of maintenance. On the right the bumps jolted the whole bike and on the road the bumpswere slightly less violent but the ridges cut in the road made me carsick. We rested a couple times on the way to Whitman. Whitman was supposed to be 25 miles from Mullen but nothing was there and the postoffice was closed. Finally we were only 14 miles from Hyannis. When we got here I found out the hotel bar and cafe was low on staff and they only accept cash. The room is nice and large and the spirits downstairs were pretty delicious. I'd definitely return to Hyannis.
We woke up to rain this morning but it looks like it's all clear now.
