It held during the entire ride.
Decide to fix it last night. Ended up with a New tire, The New Tire was so tight I had to use metal levers.
3 patches in a New tube, Three patches in the old tube.
( self Inflicted by Me ) remounted the tire 6 times.
Guess 2 glasses of wine would have helped?

Definitely! wine helps... I was told I have an easy tire to change....slipped right off and was easy to get the tube in and then the tire (seeded...seated....whatever!)
