No broken bones

Rolling hills on a bike n 96 degrees, sweat pouring off like a leaky tap - u get the picture of today. Started late after a long day yesterday riding in what felt like an outdoor sauna. Innocuous, a bit of grass along the seam of the paved shoulder where it joins the concrete of the driving lane but hiding a one inch lip from view. Turned from the pavement onto the concrete n 2 seconds later I'm road rash with a bruised shoulder. Bike is ok (twisted the handlebars a wee bit but I can adjust them back straight) and the trailer got the brunt of it all. Thank goodness I had a helmet(made solid contact with the concrete) on. In Cameron WI and will decide in the morning whether to stay here longer. Wisconsin has a lot of odd street and avenue numbers?? Photo included.

Breakfast this AM below Turtle Lake photo(namesake of the town)all of this below photos of the crash site including spilled orange juice from my bike bottle.
