Day 6 - May 24 - Salome to Wickenburg, AZ (58 miles)
We got up early to beat the heat and we were all shocked by temps in the high 50's or low 60's. That didn't last long. By noon it was well over 100 degrees. Despite a head wind, slight uphill climb for all but the last few miles and 3 flat tires -- we made good time to Wickenburg. If you want to keep track of flats it is Noah 2, Luey 2, Andy 1 and Dave 0. The four of us are having a contest -- the one with the most flats buys dinner in NYC! :-)
We're staying here in Wickenburg with a Pastor Victor and his wife Christy. We had a wonderful dinner next door tonight, overlooking the desert with the full moon rising! Luey and Andy loved that we had rice! And, it was great sharing with these folks about UPG's (Unreached People Groups) and Taiwan! Wonderful hospitality here in Wickenburg -- even a pool!
Tomorrow, early, we head south-east to Phoenix to see Chuck & Kathy Foreman, and share with First Christian Church! Can't wait to see our old friends!
Thanks for praying!
Dave
Glad you all will be able to rest for a day in Phoenix.
ReplyDeleteCharissa is seriously talking about visiting you in Taiwan *when* she goes to see Paul and Diane. Something to pray about, for sure.
Bruce is riding almost every day.
