The ride ahead would consist of easy rural roads and nice weather. The only issue was a bit of a hangover. Actually, I ended up feeling crappy for the entire day. I think it was more than a beer thing, plus it was hot as hell.
Anyway, after navigating the nice rural Chilliwack roads, I found myself at the Sumas Border crossing. There was a bit of overly bossy behaviour from officer Billy Bob but thats par for the coarse eh?
Anyway, the road ahead was great. The Americans do a dandy job on the blacktop landscape. I found a great spot to break in Nooksack WA. A nice little park with a gazebo and a drinking water source. There were wood stoves too! Crazy. A couple hours later, I had a close call. I suddenly ran out of shoulder as a semi was bearing down on me. I heard him approach fast and then slow down quickly as he couldn't pass me. I bailed to let him through. After he passed me, he honked "thank you" or "sorry about almost crushing you" type of honk.
We continued on route 9 to Sedro Woolley WA. and found home base at "Three Rivers Inn". Perfect location with the # 20 metres away...

HWC approved biceps. I have "Poser immunity" seeing as my left arm has a torn bicep. Also, beer may be effecting my choices. Whatever, I'm on holiday. |
The local tourism brochure. HWC was having none of it. |
Going over tomorrow's game plan. It was a long night of planning in the "Situation Room" "Fake News" was not tolerated... |
