Saturday on our way to Canton we stopped at a store to get a drink in Elmo, TX. Elmo is just a few miles from Terrell. In the parking lot was this van. On the side of the van it said Dallas to Dallas for wet noses, I had to get a picture and then look it up when we got home.
It’s a bike ride from Dallas, TX to Dallas GA. to raise awareness for the need to spay, neuter, and adopt pets, and to raise funds for various shelters and humane societies along the route. You can track the progress of the ride on their website.

I didn’t see the bike rider, so I figured he was up the road somewhere. I put my camera on video and started recording. I found him a few hundred yards up the highway. The photo is fuzzy, it's a still from the video.

Come and be welcomed by my Duck with open wings.
Simply amazing what a range of good causes people support. Clever of you to hit the video mode to capture the rider when you came across him. I would not have thought about that mode.
Thanks for your comment today. ~Chuck
That's cool. I have a friend who did a 220 mile bike ride for "Focus on the Family"!!
Take my hat off to all bike riders....yeah!
I wanted you to know that I stopped by, but because of my shoulder surgery, I can't type with both hands. Visiting the sites, though, has helped brighten my day!

Wow what an interesting colored van and a bike run for a worthy cause, Nice pictures.
Jim, Great investigative reporting! Don't you love how we learn so much through lugging our cameras around with us and snapping interesting things! We shoot stills from the shotgun window when I'm not alone, even of cyclists, and they turn out well. I don't have video, so its a necessity. So GREEN there by the road!

That's really interesting and a worthwhile cause he is working for. Sure sounds like a long ride tho!
wow interesting cause...were you driving while you took the video?!?
Neat, neat, neat! I love this CDPBing because of learning stuff like this! Thanks, Jim. And I won't tell Brian how old you said his Grandma was because she just might look at his comments--you're a mess, aren't you?
Thanks for giving Bill (the cyclist) some additional exposure. He's a late 50's non-athlete that loves bikes and animals...so this was a great way to raise awaerness :)
Another thank you from another cyclist that is supporting Bill on his solo ride for rasing awareness to spay and neuter pets. My dog is from a shelter and has been neutered. Thanks to Bill maybe there will be a few less homeless animals that will have to be put down in the future. It's a lot about educating pet owners to do what is right for the animals.
