Tonight will be the last night in the Tiger for the shakedown cruise. �We drove to Redmond OR to go by the Tiger dealer there to get an electrical item taken care of. �We had called in advance and told them the part we needed, as had Mark’s team from Provan. �When we showed up the part was there and it took about 15 minutes to install. �We used the time there to look at Malayan #2 which was at the dealer for sale. �Since it took much less time than we anticipated we decided to go to the DMV and register Scout. �So Scout is now officially an Oregon vehicle.
Today the drive took us up US 395 through Lakeview Oregon and then OR 31 over to US 97. �These are great roads to explore and I expect we will spend a lot of time out there in the future. �As we got closer to Redmond the weather started to deteriorate and it began to snow pretty vigourously so any thoughts we may have had of pressing on to Portland ended. �Instead we decided to toast the trip by going by a microbrewery (of course) in Redmond.
We are now in a RV park hunkered down for the night. �If the weather forecast is correct this is going to be the coldest of the many cold nights at -2 degrees.
