He's a big boy, I let him order what he wanted. Can't remember what that was, though.

Well Kids, I expect to be outa' here, soon as it's light enough to tell a deer/moose from a service (sarvice) berry bush. Should be in the Wenatchee area about noon. I'll be on a blue Electra Glide. I expect you'll be gone by then, so don't wait around. jh

Just saw this and unfortunately I'm sitting in my office dealing with some "hot items". Not nearly as fun as riding.
If you guys are going anywhere tomorrow I'm available so keep me posted.

I got to seattle yesterday around 3 pm - almost exactly on target after 14 days, 5400 kilometers and too many sights to count.
Bob met me 100 miles out and Steve met us for lunch - great to meet so many I know only by name. I met my daughter for dinner and my wife got in last night around 8 so I'm back in the bosom of friends and family.
Today we're off to portland to visit and then back here til we fly home the 25th.
Somewhere in there I have to get the bike to the dealer to be picked up for shipping home. The bike performed flawlessly except for gas mileage going to heck and being down in power in the high country.
This was an absolutely great trip.
Yellowstone park was unforgettable but seeing the sweep and change of the landscape day by day and feeling the change from the corn fields of Iowa and Nebraska through about six sets of mountain passes was a revelation.
I've got a couple of hundred pictures to go through but I'll get to that when I get home.
Best wishes to all and see some of you at the Nor'East.
