The wind and rain got us today. It took us FOREVER to make it to our destination, which is Dodson, Montana. The last 15 miles were so tough that we were singing worship songs at the top of our lungs to keep our minds off of the riding. There were no buildings to be seen for miles around, so I don't think we disturbed anyone.
We're camping in someone's backyard tonight. The owner makes her yard available to cyclists only throughout the summer. What she doesn't know is that there are millions of Mosquitos making themselves at home here with us also. I've counted 8 bites on my right foot alone. We're now taking refuge in our tent while we eat our dinner that consists of cheese crackers, trail mix, M & M's, and pretzels. We don't eat this bad every night...but there's literally nothing out here with the exception of a really gorgeous sunset.

After hearing this report of Day 19, I can understand why so many people in the past few days have been thinking so much about you and praying for you. I'm thankful that we have a God who impresses upon His children when they need to pray for each other. I love you two and am so proud of you in how you handle trials in life through worshiping our Lord through song and with thanksgiving.

Stand therefore, having girded your loins with truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the equipment of the gospel of peace; besides all these, taking the shield of faith, with which you can quench all the flaming darts of the evil one. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. Pray at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. (Ephesians 6:10-11;14-18a)
"Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teach and admonish one another in all wisdom, and SING PSALMS and HYMNS and SPIRITUAL SONGS with thankfulness in your hearts to God. And whatever you do in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him."
(Colossians 3:16-17)
