Rest Station around mile 60 keeping ahead of the water demand. High temp was only 94, but 30 mph. south winds made returning to Wichita Falls brutal.

Long lines for the port a potties the first 5 rest stations. From mile 60 on, short lines if any.

Acts 5:   Thus they even carried the sick out into the streets and laid them on cots and mats so that when Peter came by, at least his shadow might fall on one or another of them.

Revelation 1:I saw seven gold lampstands and in the midst of the lampstands one like a son of man, wearing an ankle-length robe, with a gold sash around his chest.

John 20:   “My Lord and my God!”
