Hot, windy, and 35 miles of

The second half of today (Marathon to Sanders, TX) was hot, windy, and 35 miles of 1-2% downhill. We were cruising at 20 mph for around 10 miles and then we got tired. How can 35 miles of downhill be so hard!? Oh yeah, its the (hot) wind. One more day, and then we may take a day off, depending on the weather. There might be another cold front blowing through tomorrow evening.

We plan to get up early to miss the heat (100F is predicted) and then the winds are supposed to pick up to 25-30 mph bringing "colder" temperatures. Tomorrow we are staying in Langtry (see wikipedia for its interesting history), and thought with the winds we better stay inside. Langtry isn't big enough for a motel, but we can rent a trailer for the night, so we should be safe and comfy!
