PlWhat a difference a day makes! Today was a perfect riding day. It was warm, but not too hot. The terrain was mostly flat, no wind, and lovely scenery.
We had our second breakfast in Kooskie. We had a subway sandwich two hours later along the river bank. We reached our destination by 2 pm.
Ron had a thumping from his bike. He could feel a bump each tire rotation and we both could hear it. We stopped a few times to "diagnose" but without success. At the Lowell service station a young man who used to work in a bike shop found a bump on the tire. Ron says maybe he has wings hidden under his shirt! We made use of the extra tire we brought along and the problem seems solved. Over 650 miles for two bikes and no flats. We are thankful and feeling blessed. This would have been a nice camping area but we are at a "Wilderness Inn". After being so cold yesterday we had called to reserve a room. Tomorrow we are entering a 66 uphill area with no
services so there we will camp and there will be no blog entry.

What an experience and a blessing!
Thankfully you are doing well after so many miles. I love seeing the fantastic scenery--through your eyes!
Thanks Fran.
Blessing this day for sure. You made it up the hill....look forward to the other side of the hill entry from your guys! The blessing of the man with bike experiences placed there by God just for YOU! You thought you were going to camp but again God built a lodge just where you need one and WiFi to boot! Just gotta ask did you buy stock in Subway before you left??? Sounds good to me right now for a second breakfast too!
