Day 1: Seattle, WA to Lewiston, OR It was a leisurely trip to Dave (greench440)'s house where we would also meet up with Scott (MuddDawg). I discovered that out of the four riders, I was the only one without heated gear. Everyone else seems to favor the "If I'm going to wear a jacket, it's going to be heated." theory. We meandered our way through Enumclaw and enjoyed the ride around Mount Rainier. The weather was beautiful, although we experienced "snow" going over Mount Rainier. This spring has been full of cottonwood seeds, and at times, the quantity was so great that it looked like snow falling from the sky. Lunch was at the Subway in Yakima, where we met a parade of Austin Healey cars. I reminisced about a missed opportunity in my youth when I had a chance to buy an Austin Healey. Regrettably, I did not, and so I have yet to own one. We continued to Idaho where Dave led us to the Spiral Highway. The views of the river valley and the highway were spectacular from the top. After we checked into the Inn America, my high-school classmate Carolyn and her husband met us for fun-filled dinner. The night ended by sharing a glass of Scotch amongst the guys. A great start to a two week road trip. |
