Today's Ride

Great day to ride here. Overcast, 88 degrees, 50% humidity, 6-8 mph SW wind. Tube patches from Walmart don't stick.

The Good and Beautiful Life

One of my first stops when we arrived in Eagle Pass, TX was at the First United Methodist Church after I determined it was the only English speaking church in EP. I met Juliet and Pastor Becky and they invited me to join a book discussion on Wednesday mornings on The Good and Beautiful Life. So that's where I have been each Wednesday morning since March 12.

The book lends itself well to meaningful discussion. I have gained some insights that I haven't taken the time to think about before, which is the purpose of this kind of gathering.

We have also been attending Sunday morning services at the church. Pastor Becky does a good job.

EP Evening Lions Club Meeting

The menu tonight was parrillada (barbecue beef, chicken, and
pork) prepared onsite.

Some of the reports are in Spanish but it is all French to me.

Lupe is past commander of the (defunct) Eagle Pass
Legion Post.

New Bike Saddle

Pretty slow news day here in Eagle Pass so I will share my new bike saddle that I got today on the recommendation of Wes A. This will be a definite improvement for comfort and leverage. Thanks Wes.

Waiting on a replacement tire, Continental Grand Prix 4000 black/yellow from Gear West in Long Lake, MN. My rear tire was completely worn through. Rotated it to the front awaiting the new one.
