Day 25. Myers Flat to Standish-Hickey State Park

A nice 45 mile day to Standish-Hickey State Park from Myers Flat, CA. 

Leaving Myers Flat and back onto the Avenue of the Giants to be awed by the giant Redwoods and the quiet road. 

We were on and off the 101 today, mostly off.  Here we emerged from the Redwoods into a gradually drying and rolling hills climate. 

Onto the 101 and wondering if we would be considered pedestrians. Of course we had no choice!

Paralleling 101 on the Old 101. 

A little after noon we couldn't resist stopping at The Legend of Bigfoot for a drink and a snack. I really wanted to buy a little lawn gnome to carry on my bicycle back to the Wisecup's who are watching our cats and house but I was afraid I would have trouble keeping him secure while perched on top of my bike!  Too bad. 

Another hot afternoon but we only have another 10 miles to climb to our campsite for the night!  We are both feeling much better today than yesterday. 

👏👏👏

2:30 and we're rolling into the park.  Yea! Angela was especially mean and tough today. Grrrrrrrrrrr!!

Our campsite where we joined Sabine and Heinrich.  Shortly afterwards Dietmar and Domien joined us for a convergence of the "Global Gray Riders" all in one campsite.  We enjoyed talking about our day as the conversation drifted from English to German and back again and smells of marijuana wafted over us from the hikers next door. 

Sabine, Heinrich, Dietmar, me and Ang, and Domien. 

Blogging the late afternoon away while we wait to rendezvous at the The Peg House beer garden just across the highway.
