Today’s 62 mile ride from
Livingston to Jasper presented us with more hills than I would have liked, but it
was a good ride, in spite of the climbing, on quiet and scenic roads. The
highlight for me was passing a yellow lab and her 4 puppies (one white, one
black, and two yellow). She and two other big dogs were chasing us, so it wasn’t a
friendly encounter, but adorable nonetheless.
A close second to the puppy sighting
is the Italian restaurant we visited for dinner tonight. We’ve been unsuccessfully
seeking Italian for weeks and tonight’s dinner at Bella Sera was unexpectedly wonderful.
From the house vinaigrette, to the garlic rolls, to the pasta dishes drowning
in legit olive oil, to the black forest cheesecake – amazing!
Today is our last day in Texas
and, after more than 2 full weeks in this state, exiting tomorrow feels like a
pretty significant milestone. Tomorrow is also our longest ride yet, so it will
be a pretty big day for us all around.
