What a great framily. We left Silver Spur for Redmond this morning and were stopped for 10-15 minutes for a one lane section of construction on 126. While sitting and waiting for the "follow me" truck to bring the opposite direction traffic thru and turn around for us, I noticed a silvery blue coach a half dozen vehicles behind us. I knew the Fitzgeralds were traveling toward Redmond on 126 also, but wasn't sure it was them. All of a sudden my phone rings and there is Jerry letting us know that it is them back there.
This afternoon we saw Betty Brewer walking between Mike & Wendy's coach and ours. Called her in, the Lawrences got back and they came in. Then Betty started working her cell phone and Russ and Ray & Liza came over and Happy Hour was in full force. Same time (4PM) same place (our coach Lot B, 5th Street, silver Travel Supreme, red Chevy HHR) tomorrow. There are thunderstorms in the forecast. If they hold off, bring chairs and we'll be outside. If it is wet, we'll move indoors.
Mike and Shirley, hope you made it safe to Silver Spur. We left there this morning. It'll take you about 2 1/2 hours to get here, depending on the construction delay and congestion in Sisters. I assume that you know the route; turn right out of the campground, right at Westfield (1st stoplight), right at Cascade Highway, left onto 126, right on 97. The roads are very good, somewhat curvy and you climb to over 4,000' and back down, but nothing you can't handle easily. See you tomorrow.
