In which we need some water, we cross some mountains, and enter a very different place called Bulgaria.
-
In which we write a Dear John letter to Chile, our old flame, we meets wonderful Moroccan family and we eat great food.

Hell hole campground -Cotulla, TX There was only one way to go after yesterday. And, fortunately, we have been going that way. Up! We ate a quick breakfast and tried to get on the road early in order to beat the heat – and, let’s be honest, to put miles between us and rattlesnake canyon.

San Antonio – Devine, TX I feel like maybe today was practice for the real thing. Desert. Poverty. Flies. No indoor plumbing. No shade. The riding was fine, though we started a bit late so it was a little hot. (I would say that it’s 97 degrees in the shade – except there is no

New Braunfels – San Antonio, TX Sometimes it’s a great thing when the bike store is closed. So it was today. Upon approaching San Antonio we decided that we would head immediately to the bike shop – with the intention of changing out the chains and maybe the tires on Old Dan and Little Anne

Austin – New Braunfels, TX I have to start with my resentments. I guess it’s not healthy to keep them to yourself. Northern Lights. Are you kidding?

Manheim – Austin, TX Man, I don’t write for one day and I feel like there is so much to say . . . First off, there’s some culture shock in going from rural areas, and even smaller cities like College Station, to a place like Austin that, as Karen, our wonderful Warm Showers host,

Rusk – College Station, TX Don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good. I used to say that a lot in my former life. I guess it still applies today. After touring the George H.W. Bush Presidential Library this afternoon “Where’s the beef” was the term that came to mind. I mean, it

Rusk – Madisonville, TX Those of us who bike with Diana very much know that wind direction is very important to her. Not as important as butter or cream, but almost as important as having a good reserve – like a minimum of 15 bars or so – of baking chocolate around. I mean, just

Carthage – Rusk, TX Just a plain old nice day of biking. After yesterday’s ugly busy roads we didn’t get distracted with Gators and Friends or anything like that . . . We just followed the biking directions all the way here – and we ended up on beautiful lonely roads. It was a long

Bass Haven Resort, AR – Shreveport, LA – Carthage, TX After a nice 55-ish mile ride across the border and into Shreveport yesterday, we turned our afternoon/evening into one of those Diana’s Days Off – meaning that rather than collapse at the hotel we went through a laundry list of activities: All told we ended
