Many thanks to Rob Mercer from Above All Roofing in Rockport for lending me this computer to make this entry.
Today was a great day. The guys from Skagit Cycle were great, helping us mail our BOB trailer back home and getting us set up with panniers. Me bike is much more stable and I am happy.
Our ride today took us inland over US 2o. We did some short climbs but ended up in
Rockport at about 300 feet. The weather was quite cool and cloudy, but otherwise very nice. The terrain is magnificent. Pat spotted an elk herd, so we stopped to look for a while. Our campsite is Beautiful, right on the Skagit river.
Tomorrow we start on some small doses of serious climbing. Thursday we will be going over
Rainy Pass and Washington Pass- over a mile of vertical climb over the course of the day. Wish us luck.

Hey Guys,
Glad Dave is doing fine since his scuffle with the pavement. The urban legend is that at least he looked good when he crashed. We are thinking about you guys and wishing you well.

Hi Guys,
I tried this last night and must have done something wrong. In any case, we really enjoyed your visit and were glad to help you get started on this worthwhile casue and great adventure. My hat is particularly off to the old guy (yes, you Bill)- quite a challange for an old salt! Wishing you fair weather and following winds.

Hey Dave!
Everyone up at George's Smokehouse send their best!
