Got up at 8:00, cool & foggy. Watch Leave It To Beaver & Daniel Boone while getting ready-watched Columbo last night. Bike to ferry-5 m-there 1 hr early-could have watched Perry Mason–my all time favorite show growing up. Armand wants to wait till Anacortes for bkft–order hot chocolate & big muffin–don’t want to share so he decides to eat know too. Foggy on ferry so take nap–benches are like little beds. Bike to Anacortes-on to Deception Pass again–long uphills but at least going 5 mph. Decide to walk across bridge this time-leader wanted to ride side by side slowing down traffic-didn’t want to get run over by 18 wheeler. Stop at fruit stand w/big elephant statue–animal reminds Armand of ME!!! Pick up peach–see ice cream cones-look better & was delicious–put peach on bike. Back at Acorn Motor Inn in same room-$74. Get my NAILS done while Armand does the wash. Lynn & Jean are here–they have a 2 bedroom w/kitchen & living room for $69–unbelievable how nice it is. Jean is another of the cross country 2002 bikers. Her claim to fame is that she has biked in 46 states & covered over 100,000 miles touring. She started at 36 & is now 63. We tagged along last yr on her European trip & 2 yrs ago on her St. Louis-Minite, ND, Minneapolis-Madison-St. Louis trip. Both Jean & Lynn have nice short hair cuts-go across street & get all my hair cut off. Eat at Thai Restaurant beside hair place. They’re leaving around 6:30 AM–we will NOT. Suppose to meet Armand’s brother tomorrow night.
Glad to see all is well with you two! Happy belated birthday!
