additional 3 riders from the local community.
The locals knew backroad routes that were
very scenic so it made for a pleasant ride.
The ride was 20 miles with a lunch stop at
High's Cafe.
While out exploring this afternoon, they ran across a group of guys playing dominoes in a parking spot in the street. Apparently, this a a regular Friday event. The great part was they knew all about SammyRides and not only welcomed the riders but invited them to join their game so they could find out more about the ride and our cause. 
They attended a meet and greet this evening at the Comfort Meet Market, which is a Bar and Grill. The event was hosted by the Comfort Chamber of Commerce. They met Gerald & Jean Witt whose granddaughter Katie McCarty, 14 years old, who is currently in the hospital having had a bone marrow transplant 3 weeks ago. She was diagnosed at age 11 with a form of lukemia. They were able to share Sammy's story and bring hope that there are people who care and are doing all they can to help find a cure for childhood cancers. Tomorrow's ride takes them to Blanco,Texas which is about 45 miles. So until tomorrow.....
Kim and The SammyRides Team
