Rainy

It rained all last night and I woke up to a very wet and hazy fog. Had to put a wet tent in my panniers. Started the day at 51 degrees and very low visibility. Donned my rain gear and hit the road. By noon the fog had burned off. The temp. Gradually increased to 68 for a while. It is now cooling down and the fog is setting in. The forecast is 60% rain for the next two days. Biked 54 miles today. Staying at a KOA campground tonight. Got to do some more laundry. I will be very close to entering the Oregon Coast tomorrow. I will either make it to Astoria, or stay at Cape Disappointment State Park this side of the border. There is a Lewis and Clark museum at the cape, and I am fascinated with Lewis and Clark history. I loved the book "Undaunted Courage". Cape Disappointment is where the Mighty Columbia River meets the Pacific Ocean. I will have Chili and crackers tonight with some fruit cocktail. Met 6 other bikers today also heading down the coast 2 from seatless, 2 from Atlanta and 2 from Arizona. Nice to link up with them from time to time. That's it for now. Jerry
