Day Seventeen- It's The Life

Day Seventeen – It’s The Life

Castle Rock to Sea Side

Daily Brief

The day was brisk, the ride went well, and Chandler and Parry made money by eating Yeti burgers.

The Ride

The day started a little cool, and then got cooler. It started to drizzle and the skies remained grey for most of the day, but the riding went smoothly. We took a ferry and ate some great soup for lunch. Actually the soup was a mix of 7 random soups from the soup bin, hand picked by Chandler. When we got in for the evening we went straight for the hot tub, then it was food, and sleep.

I think the real highlight came when the hotel employee challenged Chandler that he couldn't eat the "yeti" burger from a local hamburger joint. Bob threw in $20.00, and Chandler's mom (Bonnie) threw in another $20.00, then Parry got in on the deal as well. These burgers were impressive, a pound of meat plus ham, egg, bacon, lettuce and tomato with chips on the side. Chandler and Parry took the Yeti burger down without breaking a sweat. Parry even cleaned up afterwards with a brownie sundae. All that food ought to give us energy for the big hill we have to face tomorrow morning that even the guy in the bicycle shop said he's never tried.

We are staying in a hotel, which is pretty impressive. Bob said it’s the life, or something like that. I agree.
