We entered into Texas today. We are camped tonight at El Paso in an RV Park with a swimming pool!!! That was the first place I went after we rode onto camp. I was so hot and the swim cooled me right off. We had a very nice ride today of 65 miles. It was mostly flat with one big hill and we had about a 10 mph tail wind for about 40 miles. When it got to blowing good at our backs it was almost like having a motor on the bike😀 After our two day rest I felt pretty good today. Most all of my aches and pains and sore spots had healed up, and I rode along enjoying the country in relative comfort. Lots of farming in the area we were in today. We have seen thousands of Pecan trees, and I saw my first cotton plant. I lost my my really nice bicycle jacket off the back of my bike where I had stuffed it under a bungee cord when I got hot. The young girl from Quebec who Is traveling with us left camp after us about an hour and saw it and picked it up for me. Yeh!! Richard had his cell phone drop off his bike and a fellow saw it and picked it up and called. We are still in the process of recovering that. Tomorrow we are going to bike about 85 miles. Sure be nice if we had another tail wind!!
Praise the Lord for your jacket recovery! Looks like you’re down about 10 pounds already??

Dee, it’s amazing how God seems to be behind you and before you – literally. Glad to hear things have finally gotten into a good riding rhythm.
