Yesterday, I showed a picture of Cindy and Kathy who are working very hard every day to make this ride possible. It's not like Joe and I aren't working...we are, sometimes very hard; but we are also having a ball and getting a lot of attention for it. We are grateful for their presence and hard work.
But there is someone else out there who is our number one supporter--my mom. That's her in the picture. She waits every day to hear that we are "in safely" from our ride. She prays for us and follows our ride on a map across the country. Marvelin Fowler is 91 years old, living in as assisted care facility in Kearney, Nebraska. She still walks every day, sends and receives e-mails, surfs the web, and now is following this blog. I'm so proud of her and am grateful every day that she is still in my life.
Today's ride took us 60 miles from Ely to Baker, NV. It was an astoundingly beautiful ride, but since the miles were a bit shorter, we were in camp by 1 p.m. and had the afternoon to rest, talk and see Baker (which frankly took very little time).
Tomorrow is a day off (YAY!) and we will clean the motor home, have our own worship time, and go visit the Great Basin National Park which is just a few miles up the mountain from where we are staying.
Hope you are all well and are enjoying your weekend.
How sweet of you to put mom's picture on the blog. She must be so proud. I know she is proud of you!! Of course, she always liked you best!!
