Day 10, Wednesday July 9th – La Grande to Baker – 79km




The landscape again was great today. I got to see wind mill/turbine dingists for the first time today. (John Vanderveen and Reuben Vyn are trying to decide whether its dingists or dingi, not sure.) We stopped by a really neat coffee shop today. It was a house, but when you walked inside there was a coffee shop, but the rest of the place were rooms (like in a house) with themes. So the kitchen had kitchen stuff, bathroom, etc. It was pretty sweet.
The city of Baker was also very cool, there was a coffee/bike shop – how fitting. We went to a local brewery in Baker that apparently had “the best beer in the world.” Well it was nice to have a beer after a long day of biking, but the best……. well it did come quite close. It was really neat that the beer was brewed right there. But yeah, cute town – Canada is better, but the States are impressing me.

Don't feel too bad Netty, I didn't notice your tan lines until I read the comments and then I had to go back and look. :)

Hi Annette. Are you planning on spending Saturday night at my house? Keely has a bed made for you and a couple of friends . She is very excited about having you here. Hang gliding looks good for you if you still want to go.

Netty those are not tan lines. Those are burn lines my dear. YOU need to use more sun screen ;-)

Uncle Rik
