We've been trying to fly through Western Texas because there's not a whole lot out here. Well, let me rephrase, their is a whole lot of nothing out here. Nonetheless, we've enjoyed the scenery, comprised mostly of rolling hills, big sky, and flat topped mountains.
The expanses between towns is impressive. We have to make sure we have enough water to make it 30-40 miles. The people are kind and helpful, which makes our short breaks enjoyable.
We rode about 110 miles today. One more 100 plus mile days. I shortly talked with another guy doing a cross country trip on his recumbent bike. He's taking a little different rout than us, so I doubt we'll see him again.
We made it to Ozona, TX at 5:30pm, got some pizza, and then attempted to find a place to camp. We asked the sheriff if we could camp in town; he ended up giving us permission to sleep in a park just outside town. However, before we trekked out there, we checked the Holiday Inn for prices. They ended up giving us a deal we couldn't pass up, so we are spoiled once again with beds, shower, and breakfast.
Tomorrow, hopefully we can get away with a sub 100 mile day.
Thanks for your continued support!
