Well now we are getting going and embracing the American culture I am sat in Starbucks posting the Blog. Very good coffee as well!
We are getting a routine going, wake up, porridge (American translation - Oats) eggs, and away for 60 miles cycling.
Here in Washington State we are meeting the most wonderful people and this Blog starts with the finish yesterday, that was in the town of Longview. Here we were given accommodation. Our thanks to the Salvation Army in the town, they have a small Motel attached to their offices.
It was in the offices we met members of the DVA, this is the Disabled Veteran's Association. Vets from Korea, and Vietnam.
It was very good to talk with Gerry Mies who had fought and was badly wounded in the war that is often called the forgotten war, the Korean War.
The day started in Oakville, we were given a great meal in the in the Methodist Church presided over by Preacher Bill.
No shortage of logs in this part of America.
To all people who view this, thanks for looking. its great to know that what are doing is being seen all over the world.
Now back to that cappuccino!

Tom you are looking good
Bruce you need to "educate" that it is called Porridge and having your oats in the morning is bound to make the Brits smile
