Day 10 -- Day of Waiting
Today I waited for the stator to come from Idaho Falls, we knew it wouldn't be till afternoon.
So I waited at the Motel 6--I prayed, read my Bible, watched all the other bikers leave for the day.
This is the view in front of my motel room.
I checked out at noon and walked down to the cycle shop, no part yet.
This is the bad stator that Jamie took out, you can see the burned portions.So, another lunch at the Loaf & Jug, then waited and waited and waited.
Finally the part came at 4pm, installed and working good by 5pm.
An easy 54 mile trip through the Snake River canyon and I was soon in Thayne where I had been scheduled to stay last night. Tomorrow I will need to do two days worth of miles in order to get back on schedule. Fortunately, the place I'm staying serves coffee and breakfast at 530am, so I can get going early. I'll probably cut out Antelope Island at Salk Lake City and Arches National Park. I'll have reasons to come back some day.
