I spent four days of my vacation this week in one of the more spectacular areas of the Pacific Northwest. John Day, OR is located in the Blue Mountains and is surrounded by high desert. The 345 mile ride there covered a wide variety of terrain including mountains, deserts, river vallies and more. There were over 900 campers, most riding BMW motorcycles, tenting in a great open field. The weather was spectacular for the entire event, producing some of the clearest, bluest skies I've ever seen. The puffy clouds just added to one of the first great summer weekends this year in Oregon with temperatures in the mid-80s. My tent is the little blue one with the blue folding chair out front.
