In Price today, the high was 41°. The temperature in the RV today in Arizona got up to 82°. I’m not used to this! Neither are Mark and the dogs. Price has been a holy terror on this trip, eating everything he can get into, including our chocolate. That’s not supposed to be good for dogs, but nothing seems to faze him!

We had our first company over on Tuesday evening, the couple that helped me when I hurt my ankle last spring. Yesterday, Mark went to his first BACA meeting in Price. He got to meet his new BACA brothers and sisters and go on a Level 1, a meet and greet for a hero (child survivor of abuse), and one of the heroes asked to ride with him on his bike. He had a fun time! And then we left our new home to come up to Oregon. Tonight, we are in Baker City, OR, on our way to see our mothers.

Continue readingToday was a day of ups and downs, meaning that we went through a lot of mountains and hills, not the least of which was Cabbage Hill as soon as we left Pendleton. Mark was amazed that we climbed it at 40 mph today! Usually, he says, we can only go 30 or 35 mph. He doesn’t know what made the difference today.
