No pictures tonight, left the computer on the bike and too lazy to go and get it. I'll make up for it tomorrow.
Our day started early not to avoid the heat this time but rather to out run the rain. In fact, when we got to the higher elevations this morning, we had to stop and put jackets on, a real departure from the heat of the past 2 weeks.
On the way we saw that there was a dealer called Adventure Harley. Since I am always talking about going on adventures, I had to stop and get a shirt. As it turns out, that was probably the difference that caused us to have to ride the last 30 miles in the rain. No harm though except that the bike needed to be washed-again.
There was a nice reception for us at the hotel this afternoon, drinks and snacks and another chance to compare notes on the tour. Tonight was the grand finale though, a private party at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. We had the hall all to ourselves for the entire night and were seved all kind of sinful food-ice cream sundaes, cookies, brownies- you get the picture and we were treated to a night of rock music by one of Cleveland's best bands. The venue could not be more appropriate to the tour though as the roots of rock are found in the other genres that we explored, country, blues and jazz. The Rock and Roll museum is absolutely fabulous and is much more than we could have ever seen in just the few hours that we were there. It is 6 floors and covers everything from the early days of American music to the hip hop of today and explains how it all ties together. The featured exhibit was a crinclof the women of rock and roll which we did go completely through. The museum is another treat from this trip that needs to be included in a future adventure.
Tomorrow it's head east and make a mile home after a dealer breakfast that ends this tour.
