odometer 2,461

I'm in Bend, Oregon. There were some heavy gusts of wind this morning that shook the car. Other than that, it was sunny and cool. After buzzing along on I-84 at a comfortable 75 mph, I turned off on highway 20 in southeastern Oregon. The two lane road was slow with a 55 mph speed limit and small towns with 25 mph sections. Tomorrow morning, I'll drive to my destination, Eugene. I'm staying in a hotel I have stayed at many times before and ate dinner in a restaurant I've eaten at before. So, I guess, it's some kind of homecoming.
