DAY 29 SUNDAY

"Good company in a journey makes the way seem shorter"
-Izaak Walton

Wow,this starts our fifth week on the road. Left Spokane looking at the snow way up in the mountains, pretty soon it was at eye level and the temp was dropping. Headed into Seattle and the rain, found out later that they set a record for amount of rain on this date.

Going north out of Seattle trying to get close to Blaine with a tire going bald on my bike in the pouring rain. Jim and I saw a sign from above, a shinning symbol of sanctuary from the rain and cold looming four stories above the surrounding trees. Guiding us like the five wise men to the manger. You guessed it that orange and black bar and shield indicating an open Harley-Davidson dealer.

We were met at the door with hot coffee by Scott and soon arrangements were made to change my tire Monday morning even though the service department is closed on Mondays. With help from the staff hotel reservations a block or two away were soon secured and we were in for the night.

The only thing left to do was hit the lounge for some drinks and conversation then early to bed.

Blaine tomorrow?
