Default ATTN: Oregon Run, news from outpost Bend

Hey Guys!

It's less than 48 hours till you leave on the "Great 2004 Oregon Cobra Run" so I thought I'd touch bases before you hit the road. Weather here in Bend has been wonderful since I arrived for good 3 weeks ago. Temps in the low to mid 80's and mostly sunny. I guess there is a Pacific front due in (ya, I know, great timing) this week for the coast but here it will only cause a few clouds and the slim chance of "isolated" afternoon thundershowers (weather service wording). Anyway, if you do (heaven forbid) get dumped on, you can always head this way a day or two sooner. Plenty to do and see believe me.

The plan as it now stands is for you all to roll in here Friday afternoon. The Dark Bishop, me and perhaps sir yaks-alot will meet you at the Bend line and lead you to your motel. After check in, we'll hit a great brew pub for dinner and then to our place for some dessert and a word about Saturday's cruise and misc info re Bend.

I hopped in deni Sue's Miata (no cracks please), popped in a Lynyrd Skynyrd CD and drove the route this morning. You're going to love it! About 130 miles of some gorgeous mountain roads, a visit to a National Volcanic Park with an awsome obsidian field, a stop at chi chi Sunriver and back into Bend in time to hit the pool or shops before dinner at a car friendly old school drive in with curb service and fantastic burgers (for those with more sophisticated culinary needs, I can suggest at least half a dozen 4 star dinning spots in town-- Bend has more restaurants and dogs per-capita than any other place in the northwest).

I even have pictures of "Roswell" (CSX1999's proper name) in it's current state of rebuild so as to dispel any ugly rumors that the car is another of my pathetic fabrications (remember, that's what you said about Crosley).

Anyway, good luck, drive safely and I'll see you Friday -- plan for some yuks!

The way I see it the only way the rain gods will piss on our parade is if there's a bow tie motor in one of the cars. I guess we will only get wet on the way home. See ya Friday.

Oh my God! You're right. I forgot the rainmaker will be here a few days before you arrive. I better go buy an umbrella. Actually, the latest forcast has backed off a bit on the "will rain." Now it's cloudy to partly cloudy with temps in the mid to upper 60's for the coast. Sounds like perfect cruising conditions to me.

See ya!

Walt
