Washington was still beautiful. I was still in the dry area, but it would soon turn out that there was a lot more diversity in the environment than I'd been exposed to.
Amazing right?
We stopped at a town which had a huge Western theme going on. It was like being on a movie set.
There, we saw that the P2S team had been there just a week earlier. There they are on the picture to the left, and there we are in the picture to the right.
The next day, we left our campground to go back into the beautiful Cascades. There I am to the right.
There was snow along the way!
The road was curvy and surrounded by snowy peaks. It was a fantastic ride, and fast becoming my favorite riding day.
Quite an elevation change; there I am looking down at the road I'd just been on.
Remember the picture two images up? There it is in the background.
The backdrop pretty much made this photo mandatory.
On the way down, I saw the most curious sight ever. It was a bright cyan lake, called Diablo Lake.
After a fantastic descent (where Wade reached 53.3 mph!), I saw beaches right up next to the Lake.
Naturally, I had to go for a quick dip.
The next day, we discovered that the road we'd been riding on was lined with blackberry bushes. They were so tasty.
The day going into Surrey, BC, we made a stop at the border office.
The day into Vancouver, we were all extremely excited.
By the time we were getting close, we all stuck together.
And there's the Pacific!
So I'll save the concluding remarks for my final post, which will come soon. Basically, though, arriving at the destination was awesome, and I want to thank all the people who met us there for all they did. Thank you!
As people started to leave, a few of us decided to go for one last ride around Vancouver together.

And we also got to see some wilderness up in North Vancouver.
One more post left. Bye!
