Today's ride was 69.46 miles giving me a total of 1,450 for the trip. I cannot say strongly enough how much I loved today's ride. The air was cool but clear. There was very little wind and the scenery was just spectacular. The fields full of wildflowers seemed to go on forever. I tried to take pictures but again it was to vast to truly capture the beauty of the countryside.

Hi Patty, Thanks so much for letting me know that you saw Dave! I have been telling him where you were and watching when I thought you would overlap!! He emailed me tonight and said that he was riding on tomorrow so you may cross him once more! Thanks for letting me know! Sounds like you had a great day and that the flowers are finally really nice!
Tailwinds,
Anne
Glad to see that you had a good day riding finally! I'm wanting to make the trip from LaGrange to Navasota! The wild flowers sound gorgeous! You must be near Louisiana by now. Have fun, g
