Day 2 Sumas toTwisp to Wenatchee

Day  2 started out very smoothly. We left on regular schedule, got throught the boarder with out and issues, there were five of us.  Willi joined the Conga line in the morning. We were heading to do the Cascades and then stop in Twisp to meet Belle's father. The Cascade are gorgeous as I knew, but also knew there could be all kinds of weather and there was. 
We had to stop and rain gear up. Before we headed into the Canyon
Willi's bike kept breaking down. something to do with the  battery issues and Wilbur had to push start it several times. It wasn't fun, pushing it, and very frustrating for her to say the least. It got so she was afraid to turn her bike off. Not to worry I kept telling her, it is all a  part of the adventure and is what makes good stories. Needless to say we are off to the Harley Dealerships this morning to get the situation fixed and also my horn

We arrived in Wenatchee around 5:30.. Riding around in circles trying to find our hotel. All a bit hot and tired now as the weather had switched to hot again. We ended up calling Karen, Willi took off and found the Hotel herself. We were only a couple blocks away from it after all. See it isn't just the Flo that gets lost... tee hee, it makes me chuckle. I just appreciate being able to follow the leader leader.
It was a great ride  through all kinds of weather, and at the end of the road , some new Conga friends.
Erin and Tim from Spokane, and Peppercat from Victoria showed up. Tanya's sister Sylvia was there too meet her. We all had a lovely evening looking at pics and getting to know each other. I can tell the new crew is going to be a blast. There should be about 9 riders this morning I believe. we are head the Cruiser Bar that you drive through. It is in Post Falls Idaho. We have another Conga Bra that we plan to sign and hang beside last years. Superior is where we will spend the night.
It is a clear blue sky this morning!!! whoo Hoo!!
