Cold wet rainy

Today was, well, cold, wet and rainy. We only road 45 miles, but couldn't shiver our way through any more. Oregon State campgrounds have free, VERY hit showers and Scott and I both hung out in one (separately moms) until we could feel out feet again. I think I was in there for about 15 minutes and didn't feel too bad about it due to all the rain!

When we got to camp there were a few old guys on 3 different BBQs grilling up ribs. We chatted for a bit and when we came back form the showers I think we looked pitiful enough that they invited us to join them and their group... Rad! We had a great meal of smoked ribs, slaw, potatoes, green beans, as well as birthday cake and ice cream! To thunk that we were going to have freeze dried Masala and we ended with BBQ! Needless to say good food and good company in a warm and dry room changed out spirits for the much better.

We're back on track tomorrow with a 90 mile day planned as well as the Tillamook Cheese factory as a quick stop! Did you know they make ice cream?!

Keep your fingers crossed out clothes dry for tomorrow's ride...

  1. Loving the updates & photos L & S! Quite an adventure you are sharing that will provide memories that'll last your lifetimes! TIllimook Cheese Factory - Robertson Clan was there in the 60s - don't recall if they had ice cream back then. According to google maps - Only ±781 miles to SC from there...Keep on truckin!
