We started the day a little warm....and stopped in Burns, Oregon at the McDonalds for a late breakfast...big mistake. The person at the cash register was new and UNTRAINED. She got pissed when we asked for another glass after she put her fingers in the glass.
John called the telephone number AND talked with the manager. There was even one employee wearing jewelry.
Over all, we lost close to an hour at this stop.
We continued on Hwy 395 out of Burns - speed limit 55....we rode 65 mph most of the time.
Lunch in Lakeside....reasonable rates and good food.
We turned on to Hwy 140 and headed toward Klamath Falls. Again the speed limit was 55 and we rode 65...and just happened to slow down to the speed limit before we saw the highway patrol.
That happened twice today. We made good time and didn't get speeding tickets.
A close call on Hwy 140 with a oversize load. Not only was it long it was extra wide because it was carrying a piece of farm equipment. The truck was traveling so fast that if it HAD a regular or large size vehicle coming at it they would have collided. Dumb butt!
It wasn't has hot today as we thought, so we aren't quite as exhausted....although we did get a little testy checking in to the Quality Inn. We are wondering if being a twit is a requirement for the job.
Home tomorrow!
