The Refuge Church of Milam https://milamrefuge.org/ , just 4 miles from Holly Park,has graciously offered to host a breakfast for us at 8:30 on Saturday morning, May 3rd, for donations to the work of the congregation.
Bryan tells me the menu should include bacon, eggs, pancakes and/or biscuits & gravy.

Afterwards it was time to ride it off...
The oldest house in Texas was closed for visitors, so we rode to the interesting NASA Museum in Hemphill. Hemphill was ground zero for debris recovery after NASA's 2003 Columbia shuttle re-entry disaster.
Time for a group photo in front of another country church.
A total of twelve diehard sidecarists braved Friday's rains to make it to Holly Park Marina for the gathering. The weather Saturday was ideal for riding.
