Day 23 - My stealth overnight at home plate of a community ballfield was actually pretty comfy.  It got cold and I needed a pillow, but I got it done.  A local lady told me about the spot.  Something cool, there were horse and carriage rides padding by for two hours.  

Ferry to Seattle today, I love ferry boat rides.  This one is on the fast Clipper ferry.  I got that bike spot on it.  A big bike race is in town today so the ferry is booked.

My travel partner and I ready to board the Victoria Clipper to Seattle.

Well, the KEENS made another epic bicycle tour - Heavy Rescue 2024. A voyage that made memories, friendships, challenges and smiles!

2:15 pm arrived Seattle.  The ferry sailing was excellent - 2 hours.  My son Dan and Louise greeted me with big hugs and a nice stop at a French place for refueling (I mean food).  

The two road their bikes from West Seattle to meet me; Louise is nine months pregnant too.  Amazing!

Thank you both for the warm welcome; we have to get a photo ok.

One last push home comes via Amtrak in a few days.
