  • July 6 - Seattle to Shelton

    Please visit Seattle to Yachats slideshow



    We woke to clear blue skies. I went down to Specialties and got a quick take-out breakfast which I ate in my room. I got my bags loaded before 8:00 and rode with several others to the ferry terminal. We caught the 8:30 boat to Bremerton . The views of the Olympics, Mt Ranier and the Seattle skyline were exceptional.


    We got off of the ferry and rode through Bremerton up some very steep walls. We had to retrace some of our route because of road closures. We got through it, though, and had a very scenic and tranquil ride to Shelton. I stopped with some others in Belfair and bought a sandwich at a market. After that I rode solo all the way to Little Creek Casino.


    This was the day’s route.



    My room is big and a bit run-down, but it is clean, has hot water and offers free internet, the important things.


    I walked through the casino on my way to the convenience store to get some snacks. I had to air out my clothes because of the cigarette smoke. The casino is very large and it was very full. There were a lot of old folks gambling away their pension checks on the slot machines.


    Happy Hour was at 5:30. I had dinner in one of the casino's restaurants with Ron Guidotti. Because Ann is allergic to shell fish, I don't have it very often at home. So I took the opportunity to have a large mixed shell fish Louis.
