Day 2 on the Road. Louisiana to west Texas.





 Learned a few things today. Not all campgrounds are equal.  Last night was a rough place so showers were not happening there. Tonight in Kerrville, TX we have a great spot. Paved camper parking, covered picnic table, and close water and electricity. Life is better with a shower and a decent dinner. We had waffles, bacon and maple syrup tonight.

I discovered that our locking pin that holds the trailer hitch to the truck came loose somewhere between home and Louisiana.  when I made the discovery this morning, I touched the pin and it fell out.  The Lord was watching-out for us.  We drove over 600 miles yesterday.  All is well and we are having fun.

Amy’s Birthday Ride!

 We celebrated Amy’s last birthday in her 40’s by riding 58 miles. Tallahassee is behind us and we are staying in a cabin in Madison, FL. Passed a big alligator on the side of the road in our last 10 miles. Rode through Ray Charles birthplace. Planning a relaxing afternoon. Details of our Thursday 10AM finish at St Augustine beach are posted in a picture above. We will pull into the parking area by the fishing pier.  Upon arrival and we will take the finish picture at the Atlantic Ocean. If you plan to be there please let us know in the comments. Everyone in attendance will get a plaque, t-shirt or handshake.

In Gulf Shores, AL tonight.

 It took about 30 minutes to exit Mississippi this morning. We dodged the rain until our last 30 minutes of the ride today. Made the 9:30am ferry across Mobile Bay. It costs $12 to take a tandem bike across in case you need to know that some time. The ferry saves us close to 70 miles. Lots of damage still in the gulf shore beach area. Rode a nice bike trail for several miles. Contemplating a trip to Lambert’s for dinner and a visit to Buccee’s.

In Gainesville. Two days left.
