Climb Every Mountain...
We started off our day with a delicious breakfast provided by the Everett Church of the Brethren, which was so dearly needed since we had a long ride in the mountains ahead of us. The morning continued on with the ride dedication, which was made out to Shea, who was a good friend of one of our riders. We kept Shea in mind as we went on to attack the long, 80-mile route in the mountains. Today wasn't too bad, since we weren't facing such hot temperatures like we had in the previous rides. There were a lot of climbs and some head winds, but we persevered through it all as a team and made it to our next stay over at Mt. Pleasant at the United Methodist Church. We were greeted with showers and an Italian-themed dinner when we arrived, and everyone agreed that it was such a blessing.
