Sunday 21st July

Elma to Wild Cat Cove road (beyond Shelton).  40 miles.

  A cycle along a quiet road, through forested countryside, to the logging town of Shelton. The main road took the traffic. I actually met Rebecca, another female cyclist. She is doing some kind of research work into crickets! Rebecca, Ruffie and I went to a café where the owner told us to bring in our bikes as there is a lot of crime in the area. (Ruffie says he saw someone taking methadone in the toilets!).
    We then had to back track onto the main road, plus take the freeway to reach the beautiful cove where we stayed with Bob and Jean. Well worth the effort. A great location, next to the tidal sound with Mount Rainier in the distance covered in snow. , Salmon cooked on the barbecue, and the kindest people you could ever hope to meet.
