Well we made it to Bulverde, TX. Man did it get hot today in Texas. I didn't realize that I had gotten so UNaclimated to the heat. Did 650 miles again today but did I say the heat killed me. Didn't take tons of pictures cause we used to live here and have alot from around here. I do wish I would have taken some of the corn fields we passed. They are having a really bad drought and the fields are just dead. Left Little Rock at 8:00 am and didn't stop till the Texas border about 140 miles.
the texas welcome sign was missing dure to all the road construction at the border. these were from the welcome center.
Who is this bad looking guy with a rubber duck on his shoulder?
Carooline pulled up beside me and took this one. I thought this was pretty cool, how many of us have a picture of ourselves rolling down the road?
I did stop before getting into Dallas. This is Lake Ray Hubbard, the Dallas skyline is in the distance you just can't see it in the little version.
I also stopped to pay my respects to my mother. This is at the entrance of the DFW National Cemetery.
At her grave. She passed Thanksgiving day of 2008, man do I miss her. I Love You Mom.
The view.
This is the Dallas Baptist University That is right next to the cemetery.
No pictures from Dallas to Bulverde but I will ride thru this area again Sunday or Monday. Not riding anywhere tomorrow, we have some business to attend to. But I might ride out to Gruene Harley and I will try and take some pics of the area. I understand the river is almost dry. Its really sad cause there are alot of toobing companies that depend on the river to make money.
I really like the ideas from you guys. My route is just a guide and I want ideas on how to make it better. I will try and ride around lake Tahoe that sounds fun and I do not need to ride thru Sac so I will stay on 20 to 101.
We stopped for a couple of hours tonight just south of Austin to have some dinner and I needed to cool off. We got back on 35 just to get stuck in construction for about 45 min. The bike and I got hot all over again. Did I say it was hot today? I believe it was 98 or so.
