Thanks for sending us the updates, Salsabike!
and, what in the world could he have been thinking? that he was going to drive home from Tumwater after he finished????
Fun to hang out with you a bit yesterday...only the slightest bit o' guilt that we were hanging out relaxing, chatting and eating yummy Mick Jagger fries while they were working SO hard.
Congrats to Chris too!

I too think their achievement is truly fabulous and absolutely admirable.
For the record, though, I felt completely guilt-free while hanging out with you, bmccasland, and NbyNW, eating those Mick Jagger fries yesterday. Not an iota of guilt. Not a nanoblip...fill in the blank.
P.S. The Olympic Peninsula loop was 600k, the loop of the 8 to the east into the Cascade foothills was 400k."My predominant feeling is one of gratitude. I have loved and been loved;I have been given much and I have given something in return...Above all, I have been a sentient being, a thinking animal, on this beautiful planet, and that in itself has been an enormous privilege and an adventure."

My friend Angela sent me a text during the event that said "You are strong like lion!" Totally made me laugh out loud!
