Hey yall, we had another spectacular day. We rode along pretty much the same scenery as yesterday..With the exception that today we rode along the Sam Houston National Forest . It was breathtaking. Forest in Texas??? Who would've thunk... It is so green and lush here. Alot of water everywhere. We came across a bridge and were surprised to see an enormous lake. We thought, hmmm, did we just cross the Mississippi River???(LOL) . No signs with the name of the lake. I asked a man fixing a car on the side of the road. Lake Conroe!!! Enormous is the only way to describe it..
Well the entire day was glorious and then the last few miles coming into town . We get onto Farm Road 150. No shoulder and we were hanging on for dear life. Big trucks and Texas trucks, the kind everyone drives here. We rode and rode hoping it was going to get better. It did not. Pulled over when it was safe. Called Joe, he came back to get us. About 200 yards after he picked us up. A shoulder big enough for a car. Oh well!!! We were nearly done anyway....
Well we are making progress. We are almost across Texas. We are loving everyday. Getting stronger and feeling lighter on the saddle. Best of all, nothing hurts!!! Yahoo!!!
