Little bit of a late start this AM but we don’t have a lot of miles to do and the time we spent having coffee and chatting with Bill & Debbie was not only enjoyable but allowed us to leave after a local rain shower had passed. We caught up to that rain shower and many others throughout the day. The rain gear worked pretty well though and we were mostly dry through it all. First destination this AM was Latus Harley Davidson in Eugene, Oregon (about 75 miles up the road). Despite being short staffed in the mechanic department they got my bike in and go the saddle bag lid repaired. It did take two hours but for at least half of that time it was REALLY raining outside so we were kinda happy to be inside. Destination #2 was the Gerbings heated clothing store. I thought my stuff would work after Bill gave me everything I needed but I was about a foot short & needed an extension cord.\u00a0 They close at 4:30 though and my GPS said we would get there at 4:27. It was a fun ride up Interstate 5 in the rain trying to make the deadline. We pulled in at 4:22 but I now both Robin and I have our heat working (she found some electric glove liners at Latus’ that work VERY well). Last stop before the Super 8 here in Tacoma was Dirty Oscar’s Annex. Irish Death is their dark beer on tap, Parmesan tater tots, and their buns for their burgers are home made from pretzel dough. Food was excellent, company better.\u00a0 We laughed and went over the events of the day, and days past.<\/p>\n
