great weather today, cold last night, little frost on everything this morning... Biscuits and gravy for breakfast, sometimes you just got to suck it up and ask yourself if you are willing to wait another 25 miles to eat lol the chef looked as bad as i normally do after a few days on the road and needing a shower... Then to just watch her grab things with her hands... Oh well... calm river, here anyway, lot of birds... Sand... Even water lol what a ride, winds are not as bad as yesterday, still around 15 mph... Stopped at the Paradise Grill in Coldspring, it is busy so i am guessinh they have some decent food!!! never imagined it could be so relaxing, leaning on an old metal gate, the wind that is giving me heck while riding feeling so good now, listening to birds and watching cows... Not too bad :-) of course, bigger in Texas relaxing along the highway... I have learned that these country toads have rush hour traffic too... Sometimes that is no issue, today, well i am on a busy curvey highway... Normally the curves are not a very big issue, you can hear cars coming, now it is a steady flow of traffic... I did put new batteries in both of my flashing lights... Two dogs chased me today, i have dogs chase me every day, normally they stop at their priperty line, today they kept coming, one of the dang dogs bit my back tire, did not want to let go... Almost stopped me in my tracks, had to go into a full force pedal, standing up on the pedal, putting all my weight into it... The dog let go, kept thinking going to have a flat... Going to have a flat.... Going to have a flat... I did not have a flat... Two people just stopped to see if i was ok, guess i should move until i am ready to move on this is the first cup of coffee i have made on this trip, except for hotels and gas stations of course, 5 days shy of a month!!! Sure glad i put the stove and coffee maker to use
