Day Nine - Grand Coulee to Davenport
To finish last night, it is somewhat surprising that the Grand Coulee Dam laser light show has not changed since I first saw it 25 years ago. But the good news is that we saw previews of the new show which starts later this fall. This morning we started with another steep climb out of Grand Coulee to Wilber, 19 miles to the southeast, where we again joined US 2 East. The next 29 miles to Davenport were fairly flat. We would have gone further east, but there was no place to stay for 30 miles past Davenport and we were't up for a 78-mile day with 40 pounds of gear. We stopped in the Davenport Visitors' Center and received permission to stay in a very nice city park with a swimming pool, which had showers. No charge for any of these great facilities. On to Spokane and beyond tomorrow.
