Another of God's Truths Revealed - Day 18

Exodus 20:9-11 tells us God created the earth in 6 days and rested on the 7th and commands us to toil for 6 days and rest on the 7th.  We hadn't taken a day off from riding for 15 days and our bodies were telling us it was time for a break.  We stayed holed up in the motel catching up on the blog, servicing the bicycles and doing some grocery shopping.  Meals included delivered pizza and microwave dinners.  It was a much needed rest day.

Some more thoughts about our journey:

- We are 240 miles out of 400 miles into Oregon

- Reality has set in on how far it is to the Mexican border

- A day of rest is needed at least once a week

- We are tired of the cold and foggy days we've had since entering Oregon

- We don't know why motor home drivers are not required to have CDL's, as they are every bit as large as trucks.

- Canada, Washington & Oregon have been very bike friendly for the most part.

- Motels are a nice relief from the damp and wet campgrounds and pretty hard sleeping surface

- Except for damp mornings and fog, we have been blessed with good weather.
