HORRENDOUS WIND AND MONSTROUS HEAT


#4 WITHIN OUR 100 MILE RADIUS

Sigh, we may be heading home early from our adventure in Eastern Washington. 

We arrived at mid-afternoon yesterday (Wednesday) and got camp set up. We even had a “Welcome” sign ;’-). Ok, it had been chalked there for the Richardsons (I cropped out their name), but we took it.


We got a view of the Columbia River.



After getting all organized we rode our bikes the half mile to meet the “sisters” (Sisters On The Fly) who were camped a bit away from us. We took our beverages, masks and seats (Susan’s multi purpose buckets)  to join the four others and have some chat and social time. We all kept good distance apart and enjoyed about half an hour of meet up time. Of the six of us (Heidi, Sandy, Willow, Trish, Susan, me) this is the first SOTF outing for five of us!! It was a very nice visit with newfound friends that we enjoyed a lot. As we were departing out social gathering, Willow gave us each a bottle of wine from a winery where she once worked. Thank you Willow for your generosity. Thank you Heidi for putting together this outing. Thank you Sandy and Trish for good conversation and pleasant time shared together.

Riding the “spur” road to the day area (we were trying to get more than a mile of riding!!) we had a different view of our RV.



Back at camp we set up our (new and wonderful) chairs to have a brief sit before retiring into the RV. These chairs are so nice because not only do they fold up small into their own bags for easy storing, they rock!! And they recline!. 


We had turned away for just a second or two to get something, and this when we turned back.



WIND!!!

It was windy when we got here, and today there is a WIND ADVISORY! So much wind makes it impossible to do any bike riding. And without the wind the 97+ degree heat makes it unsafe to ride. Even sitting outside is uncomfortable with the wind and heat. We now will dither a bit about whether to head home.
