Burns didn't have much to offer as far as I could see & there were no towns to speak of until Bend, so I got on the road & hardly stopped till I got to Bend about 135 miles later.
This is a view of the countryside from an overlook & is typical of the terrain all the way to Bend. It is high desert so it gets warm in the day time & cool at night. It was a comfortable 80ยบ or so as I drove along. I did stop at a rest stop for a break but noticed a school bus pull in moments after I arrived. I hustled to the bathroom & they smiled to myself as about 30 7-8th grade girls got off the bus. They were a volleyball team headed to a tournament near Bend, a 2-3 hour drive. I did comment to one of the coaches that I was glad it was them & not me on the bus.
I went to the cheaper of two RV parks I could locate in town & was given the last spot & only for Wednesday night. Slept as if I'd done something during the day that would have resulted in me being tired.
