In Bend in Oregon today
Lost a poem along the way

As I recall it went like this
So there's nothing
That you miss

(2 days past)

"Leaving Idaho
Glad I came
Nice place and time
Now I go"

The original
Much better
I'm sure
But now more

Later but before what follows
Found now here's how it goes

"The Roadway Inn
In Boise Idaho
Glad I came
And now I go"

(Yesterday)

From Boise to Bend
The I-84 West to Ontario
US 20 next way to go

River ranch farm and hills
Country all the way
Vale for pizza
Burns bigger
And drove through
Gas halfway too
Somewhere in the middle
Then a Klondike Bar
Where a tractor was discovered

Ate lunch by the river
I think the Malheur
The foothills
Six thousand feet
Eighty-six hundred
In meters

Time past cars passed
And then the Cascades

Came over a hill
20 miles from Bend
Suddenly there
Near and high and
Covered all with snow
A sight it was to thrill
