It was a rainy 4th of July. We pack our wet tents and make the short ride to Astoria over a perilous bridge across Young’s Bay. Astoria is a seaport on the Columbia River. A huge cargo ship moved up the river as we rode along side it. We later found out that many ships here are loaded with Midwest grain bound for China!
After a stop at a downtown coffee shop we fortunately got into our motel, the Columbia Inn, early. Then we took our bikes to be shipped at Bikes and Beyond, a local bike shop. Steve’s shipping his belongings as well. I’m checking my belongings. It’s amazing how few belongings I have. It’s true. Not to wax too philosophical but we, most of us, have much more than we really need.
