Day 24 - Ride Like A Thriver

Today we head from Las Cruces, New Mexico to El Paso, Texas

Pecan trees for miles!

We found a break spot just outside Texas on the side of the road. Chuck had a frozen protein shake after a 2 mile ride.

We did it! Three states down!

We spilt up for several miles when the bike route took Chuck on a bike path along the Rio Grande (which is dry)

We reconnected on a street in El Paso.

Jax in the front seat when Hannah walked to the sidewalk to video Chuck.

We drove to the campground we had booked last week because we needed an address for some deliveries. Over the weekend they were all “lost” and returned to sender. We prayed for them to somehow get there and when we arrived, all the packages were in the office!

We drove through a bit of El Paso on the highway and it borders Mexico the entire way! The Wall is very tall and protected here. El Paso is split into the city of “Juarez” where the Border Wall divides the two.

We could clearly see the “old wall” height and the new much higher Wall.
The Rio Grande is a canal along the Wall in this area.

One of our packages was SO exciting!

Silver City, New Mexico did an article on our Ride and published it today!
