Comstock to Sanderson – 88.1 miles of chip sealed road and hills. It rained a little last night and was very cool this morning. We all wore long pants, jackets and our Pearl Izumi Lobster Gloves. They are Lobster because they have wind covers that each cover two fingers, making your hand look like a lobster claw. Get it….?
Not much else to write about other than after lunch about 15 miles from Sanderson I needed to take care of a biologic issue and there were no modern facilities in sight. I had Bill park the Flex carefully and then went down the ditch into a culvert. The culverts here in Texas are pretty nice. They have bars on them which make great hand holds. I proceeded to make a deposit and then finished the day. Ahhhhh. This activity has now been called a Covert Culvert Operation.
We crossed the Pecos River which was flowing through a deep canyon and Shannon and I both thought it would be cool to canoe down the Pecos.
We stopped to see the Judge Bean tavern. The man had no education in law and was a murder and crook yet was still the law in town. His brother was the first Mayor of San Diego. Here are a couple of pictures.
