Day #7, On the seventh day he rested

Someone forgot to tell the trip leaders that passage of scripture. They scheduled us for 83 more miles today. Not as much climbing as the past couple days, but we did climb. On the way out of Baker City we faced a steady climb and the we had a gradual decent most of the way to Ontario OR. We rode along the shoulder of the interstate for a couple short segments when no other rode would have gotten us to our destination. We passed thru a couple little towns, one of which Huntington, had a Railroad Caboose on the main drag into town. We stopped for lunch on the banks of the Snake River. This is an area filled with large farms growing corn, spanish onions and alfalfa.  Tonights dinner was at the Sizzler Steak house. I haven't been in one of those in years, but somethings never change. A short day is planned for tomorrow as we ride about 60 miles into Boise ID, and then have Tuesday off to rest.
