News from Texas.......
Finally, we arrived in Navasota, and tomorrow we will bicycle to Houston and to the MD Anderson Hospital where we will visit the children’s cancer section. After that, we plan to go to a bike shop for much needed supplies and fix a few broken bike parts.
A big star needs to be given to Adolf who has become the fix it man for every rider and every bike. This morning, John and Michael fixed Michael’s fourth front flat tire and Adolf gave the repair job his seal of approval.
The scenery of the the Texas countryside is magnificent. Long expanses of lush grass, beautiful ranch houses, lots and lots of cows…this is the Texas we all read about in the cowboy stories of the great Lone Star State.
The bikers are looking forward to tomorrow’s hospital visit and all of them realize that our first priority is not just riding our bikes, but being spokesmen for pediatric cancer, and for demonstrating to the nation that seniors are still vibrant, energetic and able to contribute meaningfully to improving the health care of our grandchildren.
From Texas....love and best wishes from Michael, Adolf, Mike Brown and John...Lois
