8JUN2015 - What a day. No wind and blue, blue sky all the way to the Irish Sea. We headed West at 09:00 and got to St. Bees at 18:20 for an 18 mile day. Quite a few 'rollers' but only one real climb, 1,000 feet at 28%. 210 miles for the entire trip, 16 days of walking and three rest days, one at Richmond and two at Seatoller.
Robert and Gail Lee, friends from Reno and Jeff and Robyn Hanscom, Minneapolis friends from 1980 and the Minnehaha Marathoners, joined us for the trek. Great company and many laughs.
Over all too soon but after five weeks it'll be nice to get home. Have to rest up for a lot of travel in July, August, September and October. It's tough be retired when every day is Saturday.
