It’s not if but when part 2

Woke up day yesterday to cold overcast weather.

Got moving, when one of the other campers told me rain was coming.

Got about 5. Lies and knew there wasn’t any town for another 24 miles.

Found a bakery and holed up for an hour.

The rain was pretty light and within a half hour the rain jacket got put away. By the time I got to Cannon beach.

Here was what I had to deal with.

I walked this one instead of playing in traffic

The climbing commenced in earnest after lunch.

At one point there was a 12% grade that went for over a mile .About 2/3rds of that got walked.

The reward were views like this.

And

For those of you who build with stone here is a Michaelangelo.

Oh look toys to play with…

The day finished with a 6% grade 2 miles long that felt exactly like the earlier one. About 50% of that got walked.

I ended up in a county park, where a very generous camp host gave me the last spot.

Here are some of my camping companions

There were 6 altogether, they would come right up to you.

Until next time

Paul
