Harley Ride 2009 - Day 8
Go West young man...and west we went!
God Bless America!
On I-10 we drove!
Over plains and mountains!
Through rain and sun!

What a fabulous day! Pounding out the miles, heading West. Back to the land we love! I love driving over a hill and seeing miles of valleys and hilltops. Only to go into the valley and climb back up the other side of the valley, up a hill to have another view of another valley.

No, it is not as green here. The trees are shorter and farther apart. Water is scarce and a precious commodity. Men have died over water in the west.

We left Baton Rouge, LA and entered Texas. Where it is big here. Big state! Big trucks, big farms and big mileage! Motored through Houston and San Antonio more than half way across the state to Sonora, TX.

Reflective ride notes: About 640 miles today!
Love the road signs, God Bless America, Jesus Loves You and Drive Friendly
Love the West! I want to go back to North and South Carolina and spend some time there. But there is no place like home. I know, Texas is not home, but the terrain feels closer to home than the beautiful green luge!
God Bless You!
