9/10/12-9/12/12

  It rained all night Sunday night. We woke up Monday with a  soaked tent, but good spirits. We were only 12 miles from Snoqualamie Pass where Lauren's cousin was going to pick us up.
   I hiked fast and made it to the pass by 11 am. Ate a ton of food and Lauren made it shortly and we ate more. The Ardvark restaurant treated us really well. Dan makes amazing food and has good prices!
   Rob picked us up around 4 and drove us into Wenatchee. Maggie and Rob spoiled us. Beer, good food, a warm bed. Life was good!
   On Tuesday they let us borrow their brand new Subaru which we drove all over town taking care of errands. It was so nice to not have to walk around town. It was also great to get to know more of Lauren's family and I felt like I was treated like family.
   Today, we rode with Maggie back to the pass and are back on the trail. We are headed to Goldmyer Hot Springs, a short 11 mile day. But the trail is brutal. Lots of overgrown trail, blow downs, rock slides, and bad tread. Guess this is what we get for getting off the PCT.
   Amazing weather today. The forecast called for 10 more days of this stuff. Good to be outside.
