We were visited by some serious fisherman who didn’t seem to be doing any better than we are:

I went for a bike ride on the worst pavement I’ve ever ridden, and along the way passed through a Border Patrol interior checkpoint.  The officer told me I was his first bike of the day, not surprising for this lonely highway from Del Rio to Comstock:

Looking towards the lake where the dirt road to our dispersed campsite turns off.  The sign on the pavement reminds boaters to rinse off their boat to prevent the spread of Zebra Mussels:

When we were at our house the last time, I found a set of four solar path lights that my parents had bought.  They were too old to return, so we brought them along and used them tonight for the first time:

We’re so happy to be back in the West, land of dispersed camping!

Day 844: Houston to San Antonio

Shabbos at the Young Israel of Houston was great.  We enjoyed sharing lunch with new friends.  Thanks for hosting us!

We were delayed a bit today in Houston, as we had our annual vehicle registration mailed here, but it briefly went missing at the target address.  Once we got that settled, we headed out, founding more cheap diesel on the way west to San Antonio:

This evening, B made an origami hat from a large piece of paper:

We’re overnighting at a Walmart in San Antonio, Texas.  See the trip map for today’s drive and our current location.
