Too much work and not enough riding
makes J. a dull boy. The area we live in is a farm/ranch area with
plenty of folksy places to see and visit. Time to get to it.
First up, lunch at Penny's. While this
often has groups of bikers out for a ride today we had it all to
ourselves. This place is out of the 50's without all that phony retro
stuff, just good food and good service. A Toxic Waste Burger and a
BLT with Tater Tots had us filled up and ready to ride.
This was our destination for today, an
abandoned grain elevator near the Union Pacific tracks that is now a
canvas for local artists.
I was hoping to be able to climb to
the top of it but all of the stairs and ladders had been removed and
there was only bare walls bottom to top. Had somebody told them I was
coming?
We were hot and dry on the way back so
the Silver Sage in Vernon was our next stop. Soft drinks in glass
bottles, hand made root beer floats, and the owner's kids playing Set
Back at the counter. Can't get much more homey than that.
Refreshed, we headed home and rounded
out the day at 107 miles. Just a nice day to be totally analog.
Make my day, tell a friend about this blog!
