Deller's

We rode 61 miles and made it into San Angelo.  It was a windy ride but a few times it was to out advantage.  With about 20 miles to go Charlie was struggling to keep up and after 2 or so miles he realized his front tire was getting low.  Again it was a piece of steel belt.  When we got in we stopped at the penny pub where we got some really good steaks and local brews.  We got to Christel's pretty early, before they were home, and set out tents up and sprayed them with some water proofing spray.  We ran out so I made a run to get more that totaled 4 miles and I raced cars the whole way, Haha.  When I got back Stephen stopped in but had to go back to work.  We were then able to get our awesome new tires on (schwalbe marathon plus's).  As we this everyone started to show up; all the Deller's (my mom is 1 of 15 and her brother Jeff's family is mostly here, it is also large) that are in the area came with their families.  It was a little crazy but that's pretty normal and it was a lot of fun and great to see/meet them all.  They bbq'd chicken and made a bunch of food to go with, all real good.  We decided to stay another day partially because Charlie's care package had not arrived yet (still hasn't).  Today we sent some stuff home, found out how nice the new tires feel, and got some more tubes. Tonight the get together is at Margaret's and we will be staying with her tonight. 
Tomorrow we head for Ava's (couchsurfer) in Colorado city, tx.
