Day 20 - Camp Wood, TX to Vanderpool, TX: HALF WAY!!!!!
Sunday April 19, 2009, 40 miles (64 km) - Total so far: 1,457 miles (2,345 km)
Weather: Temperatures 51-72, sunny skies, winds northwest at 10-12 mph.
Well, today was the half--way point. We have ridden 20 days and have 20 days left. Today was a short ride, but we had three severe climbs with grades of up to 12%. Along the way we entered the beautiful Texas Hill Country. The terrain was hilly but much greener and more heavily wooded than we have been experiencing. The further into the hills we get, the less dry it looks, and there is actually water in the creeks and rivers. Curt had too leave us today for business. He plans to be back in a week. In the meantime, we stayed in some very nice vacation cabins near Vanderpool, called Foxfire Cabins. We bought some chicken, potatoes, onions, and hamburger and had a great cookout, thanks to Charles and Larry.
until later....
