Day 29
October 6, 2015
Hello Childress!! What a fun day this has been! I started riding from Shamrock, Texas and rode down to Childress for an early afternoon arrival. We were met at the County line with a Sherriff escort into Childress where we were joined by a city Police escort. We finally met our wonderful hosts, James and Tracy Foster on the edge of town then enjoyed a BBQ lunch with them. The Fosters have welcomed us with hospitality as big as Texas and opened doors allowing us to share our story. We are so thankful for the opportunity. During the afternoon I met a new friend, Rudy Delgado, who is an avid cyclist and will be joining me along with a few other cyclists on Thursday as I head out of town. Tonight we shared our story with a wonderful group of folks at First Baptist church. Tomorrow we have a full day of doing the same with the Childress Rotary Club and youth groups at First Baptist Church.
