A month ago Greg answered a little girl's question to us, "what is it like (biking across the country)?" with "its like ice cream and lollipops". Unfortunately, its not always super and great.
Yesterday we heard from one of riding buddies, that he had been hit by a car, is fine, but will not finish his ride (from San Francisco to St. Augustine). And this morning we found out the tornado season has started. We are south of the tornado that hit a town in Northern Texas, but its a good reminder to us to keep a watch out for storms.
I had a graduate student defending her Master's thesis yesterday morning, and with the afternoon thunderstorms we decided to stay an extra day in the motel in Navasota. It was raining when we woke up this morning, but its sunny now, and the roads are beginning to dry off. So we are packing up and getting to ride with a renewed awareness and caution.
