Day 95 (3100 miles)
Greetings from Haskell TX. The high winds I battled yesterday seem to have diminished. I was going due west and the wind was from the southwest but it was still difficult. I was able to take a shower last night at a city owned free camp site. I had a hot cake breakfast at the dairy queen this morning. The library here has a lot of computers. I noticed there building a new building around the corner. The people here have been real friendly. I'm setting a new route further South. The roads are not well traveled here in West Texas. There was a stretch yesterday I didn't see a car for over an hour. I saw a dead hog on the side of the road, and I saw a coyote cross the road and watch me from about 1/4 mile away. Today's verse is " blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God". Libraries are few and far between, so postings might not be as regular. Thank you, everyone who logs on to the sight. Please pray God will use the sign for his purposes and that my eyes will be open for his opportunities. I due pray each one of you, make a personal choice to love God, and to do to others as you want done to yourself. Don't rely on your church, its a individual choice, the churches righteousness may not be good enough, but Christ's blood will be. Have a great day, love Daniel

Hi Dan,
This is Laura and Rob from Haskell sending you many blessings and love. I will also send you the picture that I took of you....it is really cool of you going down the middle of the highway. Sorry I didn't have alot in my pantry to give....I guess Halloween candy will give you energy, right? Ha Ha. It reminded me that I need to go grocery shopping.
You know you were talking about when God called on you for this mission you didn't understand but you obeyed Him....wow...it got to me. You loaded up all your belongings in a milk crate, put it on a bicycle and took off. Obedience!! I have thought and thought on that for a couple of days now. It also brought to mind a quote from David Livingstone....."If a commission by an earthly king is considered an honor, how can a commission by a Heavenly King be considered a sacrifice?" Makes you think doesn't it?
We wish you well, and pray that your days are safe.
Rob and Laura
