The heat continued, but an earlier start made for an easier day. We heard the temperature was in the vicinity of 95 degrees again. I jumped a couple of deer alongside the road, while Debbie came along for a real closeup view of momma and baby deer. We went 54 miles, finally parting ways with the Columbia River, and ending in Walla Walla, Washington, a quaint isolated town with lots of old time character.
The downtown was clean with vibrant shops open into the evening. Live entertainment from Asheville, NC performed in the center of town. We stopped at a bike shop, our first such sighting since leaving Seaside a week ago, to replenish tubes and other supplies. A relaxing evening while officially doing laundry readies team Bishop for another episode tomorrow. To be continued…
