We rode 37 miles yesterday. We got sidetracked for breakfast at Side Track cafe in Elbe. we noticed Jackie’s java. We stopped at an outdoor iron and wood gallery all from one prolific man. I was inspired by jack Meyer’s photos from Ireland. The 4500ft climb up Mt Rainier was worth every foot. We stopped a dozen times to admire the most amazing waterfalls. For lunch we hiked down to the cold glacier fed river. Paradise Inn was a 1917 classic alpine inn. No phones or wireless or cell signal. Today we ride 95 miles to Swift reservoir.
Beautiful!
