Spent a few hours in Winthrop, doing postcards, got the bike chain checked for the final push to Seattle. Winthrop's shops are like a merger of Frontiertown and Starbucks.
In Mazama we found our gracious hosts Rob and Ina where we are spending the night. they are fellow tandem riders who completed their cross-country trip last summer with their two young childen!
Rob cooked us a delicious pasta dinner and we've also been able to get all caught up on our laundry! We hope their Olympic hopeful XC skiing daughter Maya comes to compete in Lake Placid some day some we can repay their generosity!
M&S,
ReplyDeleteTook a quick look at a map. Pretty cool that you are on Route 20. I think it is *that* Route 20 too.
A couple quick things;
a.) Labor day is at Silver Lake.
b.) John Cooke went by the farm on his way to Hatch Lake. He said it was *not* a pretty sight.

Nearly there...well done. Keep it up. You'll love that feeling when you get to the end. I'm back in my office and missing the bike already.

That's the most accurate description I've seen of Winthrop!!
ReplyDeleteWay to go Mike and Steph! Watch out for bears and illegal Canadians. When are you going to hit Seattle? Are Steve and Amy coming out?
