Prineville to Sisters Oregon today. A short ride of 52 miles with only 1400 ft of elevation gain. We started early as folks were worried about winds picking up as well as high temperatures. Turns out winds weren’t a factor and the temps were great, starting off in the 50s and climbing to low 70s at the end of the ride. Timmie and I were in camp at Sisters before noon!! We got our first good look at the Cascades which we are crossing tomorrow. The Three Sisters volcanos stand out but all of the Cascade mountains have quite a good covering of snow at this point in time. We are camping in a beautiful public campground 5 miles from the town. A beautiful pine forest with a soft bed of pine needles throughout the forest, making for a nice comfortable tent this evening. And quiet!! No sound of any rodeo here, or trains, or anything. We are going into town this afternoon to spend the rest of the day there. Looks like an interesting place, we rode through it on the way to camp. They are having an arts festival this weekend so it will be interesting to visit the galleries, take in some music, enjoy the microbreweries and have a good dinner out!!
