Mountain Biking in Washington

Sunday, August 23rd, 2009

This weekend Ingrid and I went up to Mt. St. Helens and rode with our buddies Sara and Kevin. After getting crushed by the Plains of Abraham we took showers at the van and then rolled over to the Lewis River to impose on Vince and his family camping there. After I got us lost we showed up in time to eat their brownies and go to sleep. The next day we rode the Lewis River trail, which seemed more up than last time. But the quesadillas at the end made it ok.

Boat ride for work

To celebrate a release at work, our group went out on the Crystal Dolphin for a 3 hour tour. I got sunburned so I could try and get workers comp out of the deal.

Moto ride in Central Oregon

Sunday, August 16th, 2009

Ingrid and I went on our first overnight moto trip to central Oregon. We took the backroads from The Dalles through Condon and down to Spray. The roads were uber clear and no police to catch us going a few mph over the speed limit. We stayed in Spray and after having some grubbing cafe food we got the best beer money can buy – MGD. After dispensing with the half rack, we walked around the town and visited the local ducks and geese – who say ‘hi’ by the way. The next day we took a different road through nowhere back to Condon for some much needed ice cream.
