Boise to The Dalles was a long, hot 380 mile ride after Dayville. We got fuel in Nampa, had an excellent breakfast & service at the Starlite Cafe in Vale, gas in Mt. Vernon, a butt break east of Spray, and topped off our tanks in Condon enroute to the Super 8 motel in The Dalles.

Covered Wagon Viewpoint east of Prairie City. A
couple of tourists pulled up, and offered to take a pic. Grumbler on the left with Jack to the right behind our steeds in the shade.

John Day Highway was an excellent ride going northwest from near Dayville to Fossil. We should've stopped at the Service Creek Stage Stop, which had several sportbikes parked out front, north of the SR-207 jct on SR-19. Got very windy as we got closer to The Dalles.
