Transamerica? Take a Day Off in Sisters, Oregon
Posted by Cesar Gonzalez on May 16, 2008 . (1) Comments • Permalink
Sisters, Oregon is a great town for a stop on the Transamerica bicycle route. It’s build like an old west TV set, with wooden false fronts to all the stores, and old-style signs. There is a non-stop flow of cyclists, bikers, and RVs cruising through town all day long.
We woke up late, hunted for pancakes unsuccessfully (like I said, LATE), and finally settled at the Depot for lunch. Good choice.. I got some work done while watching life go by and the real treat was spending the afternoon cruising with Gaby. We hit the major sights (rock and mineral store, bookstore, old town buildings), we got dinner for free (pizza at the Natural Food store), and Gabriela found us a $40 hotel night at the Grand Palace Hotel, right in the center of town.
It was awesome—built in the 1930s, it was a remodeled, old west kinda building. She watched The Doors (movie) and I tried to get some more work done. Not much work got done, but I did learn that apart from being very talented, Jim Morrison was also an outsized drug addict.
