Dustball Rally 1000

"It's about the drive." The Dustball Rally 1000 starts Aug. 25 in El Paso, TX and ends there a day later. This is a "gimmick" rally where teams solve puzzles and avoid being tricked as they find their way to mystery locations. They earn points along the way. Nobody knows where the Saturday overnight location is. Me (Rick) and my sister (Liz) are Team MINI Dust Mites (#77). We'll be sharing driving and navigating responsibilities. We'll be competing against no more than 50 teams for the $1500 1st prize. This is not a race, but we'll be carefully following directions and navigating the MINI Cooper within 500 miles, we think, of El Paso. We'll be followed and monitored by sponsors, photographers, video and others. Find out more at http://www.DustballRally.com .

    Fast forward to Sunday morning. We've arrived in San Antonio, taken to the downtown hotel, just blocks away from the famous Alamo. The River Walk is very beautiful and serene. On Central time, we had a little more time in the morning before the rally was to resume.
    Taking a morning stroll along the River Walk in downtown San Antonio, TX. The rally resumes in about an hour and a half. The hotel stay was quite welcome after driving about 664 miles in about 12 hours.
