The weather, well that is another story, as we have had very nice weather, up until last Friday, when the temps dropped and over the past weekend we had lows in the morning at 33F, and highs in the day of 52F; cloudy off and on (and mostly on); and a cold stiff wind blowing that made it all that much worst. Monday we awoke to very cool temps and heavy overcast, followed by heavy rain (and snow in the higher elevations. Of course, that is a misnomer in itself since Bend sits at an elevation of 3,600 ft. (locally Central Oregon is described as “the high desert”), and the snow was down to about 4,000 ft.). There was about 3” of that ‘white-stuff’ in Sisters (20 miles northwest of Bend, at 4,150 ft. elevation). It feels more like winter to us ‘fair-weather-birds’. But yesterday was a definite improvement, and today is down-right nice, with a high temp of 78F and party cloudy skies. We are supposed to have fairly nice weather for the next week or so.
We have met some very nice people here at the Beaver Motor Coach Service Center, from all over the U.S. They are real busy here, that is for sure.
Now, we just wait for the arrival of our parts, and then the pau-hana (finish work) word on our coach. And hopefully that will be sooner than later.
