Today we left Bay Town, Tx. Going West on I-10 through Huston Iwould recommend using back roads, worth saving your nerves and your mind. finally arriving in San Antonia, Tx checking into our room enabled us to slow down and catch our breath before riding the River Boat through the San Anton River along the River Walk before grabbing dinner. on a little note, the river runs 240 miles dumping into the Gulf of Mexico and in San Antonia it run in a horseshoe shape. Through the River Walk. Another one of God’s amazing creations. God bless each and everyone of you and have wonderful night.

This morning after a bite at Cracker Barrel it was on to I 10 West towards Bay Town, Tx. with a couple of stops first @ Henry’s Travel Center in Louisiana then pitstop at Blue Elbow Swamp in Texas this is a 3300-acre wildlife preserve. We arrived in Bay Town about 3:30 then after checking in for the night, we went PinChin Crab it was good food with a fair environment. today was another great day spending time with my bride and admiring God’s artwork. May we be a light in the darkness as travel through this life amen!

Well we left Laurel, Ms. this morning heading to Lafayette, Louisiana. Decidedto ride the backroads ofMs.and La. US84 was a good drive but the roads in Louisiana are some of the worst roads that we have ever traveled, they defintely need to spend some time and money on road improvements.with that said the good thing about the backroads is seeing the counrtyside and enjoying God’s master pieces that He has created for us.if you are ever inthe are of Lafayette Don’s Seafood is the place to go!Time to call it a night May the Lord be the light that guides your path through this jounery we call life, have a wonderful and blessed night.

We left Dallas,Ga. today after a late breakfast,heading to Laurel,Ms.Making pretty good time until we got on I59 South where it became a stand still for a couple hours due to two Semis sideswipeing each other. we finally made it t Hellfighters Ministries to drop off a donation of used motorcycle parts and a brief fellowship with some brothers and a sister. Then it was time for the Blue crab to enjoy some Crab Dip and someShrimp, promise you it did not disappoint.We did have a chance to see God’s Grace @ work to day it appear that the two Truckers survied the accident and no one else was hurt. well it’s time to call it a night. May the LORD shine upon your face and be the light in your hesrt.

Today it was just a riding day, we left Bessemer, AL this morning to head home. The temps were mild with slight gray skies riding out I-20 East to US 78 East to Buckhanan Hwy then on to the house. Our final note from the ride is that we were able to endure the trip, but we did discover that we do better with cooler temps and less miles per day. We truly enjoyed the ride and the fellowship with our brothers and sisters and already looking forward to the next journey. It is all due to our Heavenly Father’s grace. Again, thanks for the prayers. Have great and bless night. Sorry no pictures just miles today. Here is an update on the Cody gang they are in Colorado to ride The Garden of the Gods. They are doing will.

Last night we had another issue with the modern invention known as the internet. So, this evening I will try to catch you all up over the last couple of days. Yesterday June 09, we left West Monroe, LA heading to Laurel, MS. The skies were lite blue with patches of gray and temps in the low 80’s. We rode out I- 20 East to US 425 south once in Mississippi we took 84 East to Laurel. After checking in the hotel and some rest; we were ready for that famous time known as dinner. We had dinner at the Blue Crab, yes, another mom and pop place. Absolutely worth the ride you won’t regret. Here is our thought for the day, we saw a couple of signs 1st Love is ageless 2nd He is able Think about the Father’s love and the Son’s obedience (John3:16). One last thing Phil and I met Chuck who has a tumor on his back, please pray for this brother. June10 today after breakfast we rode over to Hellfighters USA in Laurel. After visitation and some shopping. we headed out on I-59 North to I-20 East. The weather was a repeat of yesterday. One thing we did notice if the temperature remained under 90 degrees it was a pretty comfortable ride. We are in Bessemer, AL for the night. We Hope to be home sometime tomorrow. Your prayers are very much appreciated. Thanks, and God’s Speed.

This morning was time spent in the Lord’s house, so while we are in the area we decided to visit White Ferry Road Church. The home church for the Robertson Family. We came to early service to hear a message a message by Jersey Joe, then at the 10:00 service Alan Robertson brought the message on Crossing the Jordan, on another note the membership was very warm and welcoming: we did get to see Jase and Miss Kay. If I was ever in the area, I would definitely visit it again. So, after the services it was time to say our goodbyes to the Cody gang as they are heading to Cody WY. and Phil, Michèle and I are heading to Hellfighters in Laurel, MS. before returning home. This evening the local Mom and Pop places were closed, so we had to try a chain store Laughing Crab it was good, but you cannot justly compare chain to Mom and Pop that’s just my opinion M&P from my experience wins most of the time. Today’s learning came from the message from the book Joshua 3 Crossing the Jordan. take time to read and ask the Holy Spirit to reveal the wisdom and understanding of God’s words. Final thought please remember us and the Cody Gang in your prayers. May the Lord be the Light that guides your path as journey through this thing we call life. Good night and God bless each of you. Thanks, Brother Bobby, for your love and support.

After a short period of rest it was dinner time, yes you are correct another one of our favorites Trapps it is on the river. here is the thought for today the brothers and sisters here are family because of faith (John1:12).

Sorry for the delay on Day 2, no internet last night. So let’s try it now. This morning as we prepared to leave Leeds, AL for Philadelphia, MS we started with a temp of 75Degs. and clear blue skies; then for the rest of the day the temperature would range anywhere from 93 to102.On our final run into the town of Philadelphia the clouds turned dark gray they opened up and the bottom dropped out. With God’s grace we mad safely to the hotel. Later in the evening it was dinner time, we prefer MoM & POP type places or sometimes that little hole in the wall hideaways, such it with Blakes Seafood. Yes, another one of those worth the stop places. Here lesson learned today, it’s great to have brothers who have your six no matter the circumstances (Proverbs 17:17) Thanks Buckey, M Gun, and Tec Mo. Hope everyone has a wonderful and restful night, until later, to God be the glory, Amen.
