2019 - Northern Tier Part 2 - Day 25 - Darrington, WA

I’m sorry it’s taken me so long to get around to updating the blog! Today we rode into Darrington, which is a small logging community near Seattle. Some of our more Seattle-familiar folks were surprised that we were staying there; there’s basically nothing there, but it made a handy stopover point. Last night everything I own got wet and dirty, so I was really glad that we had at least some space inside a church to lay down. We had a big wide open field so we played frisbee. Nick showed us his Mongolian Rap music (!) and Nick S. sprained his ankle, but by and large it was a pretty low-key kind of day. I can’t believe the ride is so close to ending.

Oh! I should also mention that we ran into 4K for Cancer again at Newhalem, the company town for Seattle City & Light. And that I rode with Emily and Ginger to Cascadian Farms and had an afloggato, while we watched an incredible downpour!
