La Tour Americaine


This couple from France bicycled through town last Memorial Day on tour of the west coast of the U.S. When I met them, they were searching for a welding shop to repair a piece of broken equipment.  I wasn't optimistic they'd find one open on a national holiday.  However,  they e-mailed a couple of months later after they'd returned to France and informed me it'd been taken care of by a truck-stop in nearby Medford.  They also said they were impressed by the county's beauty and the friendliness of the people they'd encountered along the way.
