When we started the day I had no expectations of good riding. As it turned out we had a great day starting with catching the early ferry since Rick and I had both got up early. So, we made the 7:20 out of Lopez instead of the planned 10:40 getting there only about 10 minutes before they closed the gate.
We had breakfast at Calico Cupboard in Anacortes, a little city that reminded me of Benicia, CA in a way. Then we set off on another boring highway route 20. That changed soon when Rick said let's make a left at Whitney Bayview Rd. That eventually turned into Farm To Market Rd and then over to route 11 or known locally as Chuckanut Rd. What would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck a nut?
Then when we got to Bellingham, Rick consulted some local garage salers and got directions to the bike path/boardwalk into downtown Bellingham and our hotel. Way to go Rick and great way to end the trip.

Over 2000 miles in 35 days. A great trip. Thanks to Rick and Jerry for extensive pre-ride planning and Rick for leading this adventure. Kiara should be congratulated on the best bakery sniffing nose ever - if there is a good bakery in town he could find it with his eyes closed.
