What a beautiful day! Once again the weather was perfect!! We left Bishop at 8:00 am after Wayne's devotion from James 1:2-5. He related how challenges come into our lives and God uses them to strengthen us; to develop our faith in Him. You might want to take a look at the scripture and mull this over so next time you are facing a challenge you will know you are in the middle of Faith Training!!
We headed out once again on Hwy 395 and took a side trip through the June Lake Loop-the scenery was so amazing and hard to describe. God created all this for us to enjoy - it is beyond words - the majesty and perfection of all nature has to offer.
We stopped for lunch and gas in Carson City NV and then split up and some went on to Alturas our final destination for the day. The second group rode to Virginia City and toured this old western town-remember Bonanza (Adam, Hoss, Little Joe and Pa)! We talked to several people, had ice cream and sasprilla (sp). Then it was off to Alturas for the rest of us. Another 180 mile ride through more of God's country. The weather was cool, two lane highway with some winding roads and very little traffic. There is nothing sweeter than a ride like this one.
Arrived in Alturas about 7:00 pm and checked in at the Rim Rock Hotel-a quaint little motel aboout 1950 circa--they even gave us a key with a plastic diamond shaped key tag with the room number on it--remember those?? We walked 100 yards up the street to the Brass Rail and ate a family style dinner-just good old fashioned fellowship.
God has once again blessed us with more than we could have ever dreamed of asking. We wish you were all here and could experience this with us.
Oh, yesterday we also met up with the Golgotha Rider's in Bishop-Ron, Paul, Doug and Steve. We are now 16 bikes strong and 18 people. Praise God for every blessing!
