Friday May 16,08

Today was a traveling day. After a leisurely breakfast, we loaded up, drove north on Hwy 205 and then headed back west on Highway 20. We stopped at the rest area near Brothers for lunch. In the shade to the trailer, we put out a small table and two folding lawn chairs and had sandwiches and fruit.
While traveling west, several small groups of antelopes were spotted. They are easiest to spot if they are facing away from you because their white rumps stand out against the earth tones of the Oregon desert. It's great to see God's creatures in their natural environment.
We arrived in Bend about 3:30 and drove to our friends home on the west side of Bend about three round-abouts from downtown. The round-abouts in Bend are large enough to handle larger vehicles and our rig negotiates them easily.
This week-end we will spend with our friends seeing some of the highlights of the Bend area. We will head out of here Monday morning.
