We haven't been lost for at least a week

March 13/2019  Weather is sunny and outstanding today. 80/58  There is a back road to Comfort; which is a cute little town about 20 miles away.  Away we go.  We have been down this road many times and we always catch the way in along the cypress trees.  Just before we caught the road  we saw another biker ahead of us about a mile and we thought.... hmmmm.... Wonder where he is going?  Billy decided lets turn here and follow him.  A few miles farther and the road changed names and a few miles farther and the road changed names and then a few miles farther and the biker is heading back the other way past us!  But the road looks pretty neat so we just keep heading out as long as it stays pavement.  Now it is a bit narrower and then freerange livestock blocking our road.
Mmmmmmoooooooo!!!!
Very Slowly we sneak along.  By now we are quite a bit longer than we normally should be to Comfort and we really had no idea what direction we were driving in.   So stopped to ask a couple of ranchers by the road way if we were close to Comfort?  Haha they laughed..... No your going the wrong way.  They were great, they told us another ranch road to turn onto and then take a right for about 15 miles on a main highway.

pretty old Comfort home
Once in Comfort we found a new bistro to try and then snooped around town, taking the side streets and enjoying the architecture.  It is has many historic homes from the 1850's as the German immigrants were the Freethinker movement that settled here.  
On our return trip we took the Cypress Creek Road and didn't take any sidetrips down the ranch roads.  The fun rides are definitely the ones we get lost on!
