Before leaving this morning we met brother Mike for breakfast and fellowship. Afterwards we stopped by Hellfighters for the morning devotion and prayer prior to heading the road. Then it was south on 59 to Louisiana before turning west towards Pasadena. Tomorrow we will meet up with brothers and sisters from the Hellfighters, to begin the outreach of sharing Jesus with others. May the Lord move in a mighty way during the Lone Star Rally.

We left out this morning about 9:00am heading to Laurel, MS.. Stopping at Hellfighters Ministry first to donate some parts and spends some great moments in fellowship with Brothers Mike, Benji and Eddie. Oh yeah can’t forget the milkshake from PDI’s (Phillips Drive In). Every time I come here I just love the fellowship and the time we spend with these brothers. If you are ever in the area it is a must stop, promise you won’t regret it. Tomorrow morning we are heading to Texas. I would like to share this message that was shared with us today. 2 Corinthians 5:17 tells us that when we accept Christ as our Lord and Savior we are a new creation in Him. So if you were an addict, in Christ you are no longer an addict. Thou the world will have you believe that you are always an addict one step away from failure. But as a believer you can stand on this promise, you are a new creation in Him. Amen Have a blessed night

Tomorrow morning myself and my brothers Stanley and Griz are heading to Pasadena, TX. were we will be working with the Hellfighters to share the gospel and love of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We ask the you pray for this outreach and that this will be a Holy Spirit moment that life’s and hearts will be changed. In closing may the Lord continue shine in your heart as you travel through this journey we call life. Amen

Days gone by.

Before leaving Russellville this morning, we had to have breakfast at the Old South Restaurant. This is a must if ever in the area. Afterwards our journey continued on US 64 East also know as the Butterfield Trail. The Butterfield Trial was established on Sept. 16, 1857 as a overland mail route between the East and West Coast. It was a 2800 mile route which took 25 days traveling 24 hours a day to deliver the mail. And began between St. Louis and San Francisco in 1858. Then we ran down 40 West to US 49 South. US 49 is also know as a Civil War Trail. The reason behind it is during the summer of 1863 there were 4 different skirmishes that occurred near or in the town of Helena between the Confederate and Union Armies. The four skirmishes are know by Fagan’s Approach, Marmaduke’s Approach, Walker’s Approach and Price, McRae and Parson’s Approach. This was a Confederate lead attack to overthrow the Union Army, But July 4, 1863 they were defeated by their Northern counterparts. Then we turn North on US 61 to Tunica, MS. were we had lunch at the Blue and White Restaurant, before arriving in Olive Branch for the night. This is our last night on the road. We have seen a lot of great things and met interesting people during this ride. Have watch God at work and experience God through His wonderful Creation. Remember to take time to enjoy life and to enjoy what God has blessed us with.

Left Clinton, OK. this morning under cloudy and windy skies with a chill in the air. Stopping on the other side of OKC for breakfast before the weather turned. This is when the rains started and lasted through the day before arriving to Russellville, AR. for the night. It may have been the best riding conditions but never the less it was still a good day. We all arrived safe and sound ready for another day. We realize this only by the grace of God.

Just random pictures.

This morning we left Dumas, TX. riding out 152 East. Later in the morning it was Texas 207 south to I- 40 East. It was a short run out 40 to exit 112 to see Stations of The Cross. Afterwards we rode out Route 66 to Shamrock, TX. where had lunch at Mesquite Canyon Steakhouse. Yes another Mom and Pop place on US 83 North and it’s worth stop, the food is great and the people are welcoming and friendly. Continuing on 40 East to Clinton, OK. for our night’s rest. Here is some general consensus; first Route 66 was like riding a washboard on steroids, then 40 was like riding on a oven with it’s radiant asphalt. Tomorrow we are heading Russellville, AR.. My final though while walking through the Stations of The Cross, I am reminded first of my Heavenly Father’s love and the obedience of loving Son. Then of the pain and suffering my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ suffered for me. Then seeing the empty tomb reminds me that I have victory by the blood of a risen Savior. Yes I am blessed, because of my personal relationship that I have with my Lord and Savior. My pray is that my family and friends also have that personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Amen

Before leaving Colorado Springs this morning it was breakfast at the Country Kitchen and the an early stop at Outpost Harley. At the Outpost met some brothers who ride with the Black Sheep. Some were from California and other from Washington. Then I had to make a small repair before we could leave. Upon completion of repair it was South on I-25 South also known as the Centennial Hwy. After crossing into New Mexico it is known as the Santa Fe Trail. Riding through Raton Pass (7384 Ft,) we took US 64 East towards Texas. For lunch today it was 87 Cafe in Clayton, NM., I would recommend it if you are ever in the area. Later in the day we turned south on 87 to Dumas, TX before calling it a day. When riding it’s hard to get pictures to post every night, so I thank Michele, Sonya and Brenda for helping with that task.

We left Cheyenne this morning heading Pueblo, CO. for the night. During our travels today our first stopped at Greeley Harley Davidson, real nice people and great prices. Then it was onto 25 South to Colorado Springs to visit Garden of t The gods and Pike peaks. But you know how some times things just happen well that’s the way it was this afternoon. first construction, traffic and then a accident. Then with slow moving traffic the bikes begin to overheat and valves begin to rattle, it’s time for a cool down. Are cool down was a late lunch at Cracker Barrel before calling it a day. Brother Joker remember the hotel in Daytona off main street, that’s were we are tonight. The blessing for the day is that we all are hear and safe. Tonight as I close I have a few prayer request to share. First Brother Big Dan and Sister Michaele the passing of their son Dean, Brother Robby’s mother having health problems and our Brother Tom who is recovering from kidney surgery and has has a few hiccups along the way. May we stand in the gap for our brothers and sister, asking for healing, peace and strength during these difficult times. Amen

Today we spent most the day at Terry Bison Ranch. All rode the train ride, then Sonya did the horse trail ride while Dave did the ATV ride. Later in the evening we went to The Albany for dinner where most of us had our first taste of Rocky Mountain Oysters. They are batter and deep fried and in this case served with cocktail sauce. The taste is similar to a country fried steak, and for extra flavor use your favorite hot sauce. Even the ladies tried them. Never know about something until you try it.
