Another Zero day

Zero miles but that’s okay.

When I woke up I had heard back from my planned Warm Showers host Bev and she invited me over for coffee and rhubarb muffins. I was tired from yesterday’s 93 mile day and the next place I was heading was 70 miles down the road so when Bev said I could take a zero day and stay at her place tonight I thought that was a capital idea.

Bev went out to a yoga class while I did laundry and took a shower. We rode bikes to a winery tasting room (Cavu) that she knew the owners of. Walla Walla has a big wine making industry. The local college has an Institute of Enology and Viticulture. The wines at Cavu were stellar. I bought a bottle of Malbec and some fancy chocolates for our dinner tonight. Bev then had to walk dogs for her local animal shelter and I had some down time. Dinner was amazing, Bev has worked as a personal chef. I enjoyed getting to know Bev she is a community minded kind soul. And there is a chance we might meet again in Montana (subtle foreshadowing).

Kind and caring folks like Bev make their communities strong and the world go round.
