WOW! What a gorgeous afternoon here in the pacific northwest! When I got out of work at 2:30 the sun was shining, the sky was the bluest blue, and it was warm! I was thrilled. I got home around 3:00 was dressed and out the door on my bike at 3:23! I pedaled past Lake Tapps and dropped into Orting where I picked up the Orting Trail to South Prarie where I jumped onto country roads. I had very little traffic and magnificient views of Mount Rainier and the country side. Here are few pictures from today's ride.
