Day 20 - 36.9 miles - Fort Hancock, TX

A short day today!  More cotton fields and pecan groves.  We are camping at a wonderful church with air conditioning and a big dining hall.  Showers were at the high school right next to the church, and laundry dried almost instantly.  The bike is cleaned, adjusted and ready for tomorrow.  You can see what is important now! - Sue

Today's ride was essentially a day off, it was only 35 miles.  We have some tough rides in the next 2 days-75 and 91 miles.  So I spent the day resting.  We are riding close to the border of Mexico. It's very isolated country.  There are loads of farms growing pecans and walnuts, but you see so many people living in run down mobile homes and in poverty. - Annie
