Day 9

Things are going well. Today, we made it to....Cambridge, Idaho. We left Halfway, Oregon this morning at 5am. It's been so hot recently that we've been trying to wake up before the sun rises and be on the road for a few hours before it gets too hot.

We took a day off in Halfway Oregon after climbing 2000ft. in 7miles in 100 degree heat. Just hung out yesterday, did some laundry, and tried to avoid the heat as much as possible.

Were taking a break from the heat right now, waiting until around 6 or so to bike the 20 miles to Counsel, Idaho for a total of about 80 miles.

We ran into a couple named Steve and ( Can't think of it now, I'll update it later when I remember it) and they're biking from VA to Astoria. Nice couple.

Other than that we're just biking, and trying to settle into a routine of waking up, eating breakfast, and packing everything up. We're about 95% there.

Still don't have any photos to upload because they're public computers. Maybe we'll meet some cool cowboy + cowgirl in Idaho who will let us use their computer to download some images.

It's been hot, dry, and fun. More to come soon.

Cheers,

Dave

Hey kids! Welcome to the wonderful home state of Caleb, Idaho. :-P I hope you like your stay in Cambridge, there are some lovely 4H barns around there where I used to take sheep for show. :-P
