This and the following picture show the cycling trailer provided by Gillian Hoggard, the warmshower hostess in Ordway with whom we stayed on July 29th Pastor Jeb Brown, his wife Gayla, and their six children. They live in Ordway, CO. We worshipped with them on July 30 and then stayed the night at their home. The typical scenery on the TransAm as it runs through Kansas. It’s not all flat–we had our share of hills to be sure–but it’s a lot flatter than what we’ve seen since so far. The boys couldn’t resist climbing these train lights for a photo op. Forrest was happy to mow the lawn at Larry & Carla’s in Eads, CO. …and Rocky was happy to watch 🙂 Although they both worked together to pick up all the apples on the ground. While the main road on which we were traveling through CO & KS was paved, it seemed nearly every other road branching off of it was a dirt road. And they all seemed to go on forever… We crossed into Kansas on Aug 2. Loved this cloud in Tribune, KS. I think this was the cloud that hit Chicken Little… Area 96, the Baptist Church’s Youth Center in Scott City where the Lord provided us a night’s rest. The sun was setting on us in Bazine, KS as we made our way to Alexander for the night. Captured this as we drove through Bazine, KS
Welcome to KS, Brothers! We’ve been praying for good weather for you (It’s Fair Week in our burg, usually 95 to 100F)…. and God has granted you a reprieve! Lower 80s all week. You need to bike through every year! Safe journeys!
