Moving past Shamrock, tx. Wishing for good luck.

A high of 109 degrees with 15% humidity.  I am glad that I am only here virtually.  In Michigan we are having  upper 70s to low 80s with 45% humidity.  Our weather is not perfect, but any time them temp gets above 100 that seems too much for me.  The wind from the south at 15 mph did not may the ride harder.  The breeze helps.  There are not too many shade trees.  In Michigan I can find a shady ride in the woods.

The area in red is the panhandle of Texas. I heard of that, but I did not know what area it referred to.

This eastern section was very flat. I wonder if there are any wind farms.

I remember hearing about rough spring weather and many tornadoes in these plains states. The lightning now may start a wildfire, and the thunderstorms can be rough. Pay close attention to the forecast.

“It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them.” Ernest Hemingway.

Today I will remember the flat roads and the cross wind.

Luckily I will not be traumatized by a storm.

I spotted some prairie dogs. They sure seem to be interested in me.

Cotton growing area.

Another beautiful sunset. Time to rest up for tomorrow's adventures.
