Tonight we're staying at a closed army base, Fort Clark. The rooms are quite comfortable and clean. We went to a nearby restaurant for dinner and then were invited by Bubba's Pampered Peddlers to join them for an ice cream social at their camp grounds. We won't be running into their group anymore as our routes are a little different from here on.
I mentioned yesterday that our motel in Sanderson was somewhat of a dump, but a nice, Indian man was the manager. This morning we were surprised when he showed up in Del Rio (110 miles away) because they had noticed that some of the women had left a few things behind. I took a pic of him with his mother that was visiting from India. There are also pics of tonight's motel and the ice cream social. That's Bubba dressed in a Halloween costume, who knows why?
the novelty of a bunch of long distance lady bikers cannot be denied.
ReplyDeletehow kind of the Indian gent + Mum to track you down & return the overlooked items. quite a show of respect for the group's dedication.
re Bubba's party: a great reminder that we make our own good times.
are we not all fellow travellers on Life's road?
and what could be better than meeting a group of like-minded folk along the way?
hope the road is smooth for you tomorrow.
