165 miles – Ft Stockton, Big Lake, San Angelo
Flowers along Concho River walk
Day Route Map
Today is day 6 of our Big Bend National Park motorcycle ride. We were up early and had a good breakfast at the restaurant at the motel. It was better than most free breakfast at motels. We loaded up and headed off to San Angelo via Hwy. 67. The scenery was not as scenic as we had seen in the past few days but it was still nice. We stopped in Big Lake for gas. Big Lake is where the movie “The Rookie” took place. Their high school baseball coach went on to play in the big leagues… We got to San Angel about 12:00 checked into the motel and went and ate at Miss Hattie’s. From there we looked through some of the shops. For dinner we ate at the motel. Janet and I went for a walk along the Concho River walk and Janet took the picture of the flowers you see here. Afterwards Janet and I headed back to the motel and crashed.
