We’ve been without phone service for the last 2 days. We use two different carriers so you know we were wayyy out there. We’ll try to upload what we can tonight, who knows what the situation tomorrow will be.
We’re spending the night in Ontario, Oregon. They have a Dq and both of us are stoked about the blizzard royale, or whatever ridiculous name it has. It’s the fancy blizzard with a terd of goodness at it’s center. We’re also doing laundry for the first time on the trip. We’re both thankful for that, you all are lucky the cameras don’t pick up smells.  🙂 It’s actually not that bad, we’re just running low on clean stuff.
The day started in the painted hills, which were awesome. Hopefully the 360 video shows it off. I also rode with it turned on, we haven’t had time to process the footage yet so I don’t know if it’ll be too shakey. Maybe we’ll put it up regardless of quality so that you guys can get an idea of how that sort of thing could work. It’ll be like you’re riding behind me.
It was another day of virtually no people. I loved it. The roads went from colorful canyons, to high forests, low scrub, and ended with farmland. We are at about 5000 ft in elevation. This coupled with the scrub land we rode through, my brain wouldn’t stop referencing Beastie Boys, High Plains drifter.  Drifter. See, still there.  We ate a lot of bugs today. They were everywhere. Another creature that was everywhere were these little squirrel like beasts. They had a death wish and would wait till right before we rode past them to either hide, or attempt suicide. Suicide squirrels is what we call them. No deaths today, but that wasn’t from lack of trying.
A great day. We wish you were here.
