Rest day in Twisp

a generous warmshowers host let us stay at his home while he is away on a tour. He said his place is 200 square feet.  Yes, 200. Didn't know what to expect, but found this to be tremendously comfortable in a minimalist efficient way.  A log home with two levels, full kitchen and bath. The sun streams through a corner window onto tile floors.  The driveway consists of a small slab that fits two bikes, since he doesn't own a car. We decided to stay for a rest day.

At the grocery store we met a woman cycling around Washington parks- she is teaching in Spain and races there. I was so impressed that she had just rode 92 miles, including that mondo pass!  She mentioned she was thinking about camping at the rv park, but we offered the futon at our little place (yes there's room!)  She is so energetic and vibrant we had alot of fun staying up late talking about adventures.  We wish her safe and fun travels!
