Day -2; Edmonds to Montesano 106 miles
Got up early, said good bye to cats and Chelle and neighbors and started my journey in the rain. Steve and I trudged up the hill and sped into Seattle. At the Bremerton Ferry terminal we paid out $9.20 and waited for others to arrive. Soon Heather and Beth joined us and we boarded the ferry. Joining us on the ferry was a group of high school cyclist from Indiana, about 50-70. This was the first time on the ferry that there were more bikes than cars. We arrived in Bremerton and started the day dry and partly sunny. Roads were good but traffic was worse than I expected. Finally we arrived in Shelton and met up with Chelle, Paul, Druska and Karen who were having lunch. We were hungry and earthly joined the party. At about 2pm we started our way to Montesano and the Friends Landing RV park, which was very nice. After about 15 miles we got caught by the inevitable rain and had to pull over to wait it out. Soon it quite and we went off in a strong headwind into Montesano. Thanks to pulling us in, Paul and Karen! Dinner was awesome and soon after dark, every one crashed (fell fast asleep)!
