Meeting of the minds

The boys rode over the hill today and I fed them lunch. It wasn't quite the crab stuffed mushrooms, artichoke dip, salad with some special dressing, steak, corn on the cob and dessert that Steve wanted, but they seemed satisfied with chips and Rob - er, I mean dip for an appetizer, ice cold Sam Adams Summer Ale and Negro Modelo, medium rare steak, and corn on the cob. Not too bad.

We talked about our upcoming ride - The Spud Run - that begins on the 19th and covers some 2,700 miles through Washington, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming and maybe a bit of Oregon. If there is a high mountain pass or canyon road along the route that Steve planned, we'll be on it. Highlights of the trip include the Going to the Sun Road, Beartooth Pass, Lolo Pass and the Spiral Highway.


Rob made reservations at convenient Best Westerns along the way - three kings and two queens. Dave and I are retired, on a fixed income, we share a room.

"Steve Says" - Thanks for the great lunch Scott. It was so good, we'll be back about the same time tomorrow

Thanks for the good eats and excuse for a good ride. Your bike and trailer are looking good too. Dave

That's an awfully white leg Steve.

Sharing the rooms is a Walmart Management expectation, just don't share the same side of the bed.

Steve Says - Obviously either an error by the photographer or there's something wrong with the white balance setting on the camera.

Rob says, "Steve looks like he's trying to get some corn out of his teeth with his tongue, Pat looks stoned, and Dave and I look like we've been sitting too close to the beer cooler!" Had a great time and can't wait until next Sunday when we all meet up again.
