After Glamas it was a lot easier and mostly down hill with a nice tail wind.
This is Larry. He thinks God sent me to him (maybe He did).
. After I left Glamas I was having fun riding the rollers. You pedal really hard as you go down and then it is easy to make it up the other side. You make pretty good time without much effort. I was getting hungry and for no apparent reason my foot started to hurt so I was looking for a place to stop for a rest and a peanut butter snack. I saw a camper parked at the top of a little hill with someone sitting in front of it. I thought this is perfect I will go talk with the person while I rest and have my snack. I rode up and asked if I could talk to him and he replied, " Sure sit down. Can I make you a sandwich?" and of course I said yes. As I was eating my turkey sandwich Larry said because this is the Sabbath we have to talk about Godly things. I agreed. Larry went on to prove to me that Saturday is the Sabbath not Sunday. He gave me a formula and some web sites. I think I will give this information to Bob Harris and see what he thinks.
I had one more moderate climb and then it was about ten miles of down hill with a tailwind. I was thinking - life does not get better than this as I rolled into Palo Verde
This was my first night of camping and I had a little trouble. I managed to get the tent up. I asked Johnny the maintenance man where I could eat he suggested the community club house $5 for all the spaghetti you can eat. I had a good meal and talked with several of the locals.
In the morning I had breakfast with Don Boon, he is walking to Washington DC. He started at the occupy movement in Salem Oregon then moved to Portland, San Francisco, Oakland and now to DC!
