Day 26- Riverbend R&R Day


This is our first real rest day. Our previous non-riding days have been filled with interesting activities, but we are all grateful for one day of just nothing. (Note to readers: You have no doubt noticed that I have used much of the day to catch up with the blog.) 

My cousin, Dan, pictured above, and his wife, Lisa, drove out from their home in San Antonio to join the Coasters for a hearty dinner. We have regular guests and it always a special treat when family can be included. Lisa took this picture as well as many more that I hope to include later.


This evening Camile Sanders, the 18 year old and very poised daughter of Riverbend's owner, sang to us after dinner. We were enchanted and most of us bought her two CD's. You too can listen at camilesanders.com 

Tomorrow we set off again for the theoretical mid-point in the journey. It is so hard to comprehend what we have accomplished individually and as a group. We are into our fourth week and have covered almost 1500 miles so far. We have left the desert and are entering a tunnel of green as we head ever onwards East.
