I started the day by obtaining groceries in Ione. The store had been warned that it needed to require that people wear masks when inside. I saw signs up in multiple places begging customers to do so. I noticed one maskless young man. His posture sent the message that he wasn’t to be tangled with, but his eyes darted around a lot. He left the store with a big bag of charcoal.
I experienced a long, flat, scenic cycle today. In all, I pedaled over fifty miles. Thank heavens for podcasts.
After entering Newport, I stopped at Mama Sanchez’s Restaurant. They made me a fantastic burrito which I consumed on their patio. While there, I researched and called several local campsites and motels. Accommodations were nonexistent.
I cycled over to the private KM resort “Old American”. The host wanted $50 for a place to set up my tent. No way.
I watered up at the nearby Tesoro gas station and hit the road out of town. I knew that something good would happen due to the beautiful rainbow overhead.
Following my route into Idaho, I cycled onto Old Priest River Road. Behind a local fire station, I pushed my stakes for the night. Before crawling into my tent, I used just under two liters of water for a luxurious bottle shower.
One last cycle remains on this adventure.
