Muckleshoot

-

 Well, it's been awhile: hello! Wondering how good an idea it was to resume my bike riding adventures so soon after contracting the dreaded C(ovid),  especially as I begin pedaling up my first hill wheezing and weary I wonder how much I am actually over that dreaded disease now....and then figuring out that my route from Auburn was to be the same whether on bike or car or anything: there's only one -- too busy-- road out here! 

Lucky I had a bit of a shoulder most of the time at least....& quickly entering the good ol' Muckleshoot reservation, nice to see the so quickly abandoned fireworks shacks at least came up with some clever advertising...!:


Road flattened out and there were some occasional breaks between whooshing pickups and giant semis....
and then here comes Muckleshoot!

Another new branch! & believe I was the only patron inside this day...but nice to reconnect with Brandi at the front desk, and some swell artworks on the walls too

Leaving home early on a Monday morning... & riding to Northgate for light rail ride to UDub stadium for 2 buses, first to Redmond where I got to revisit library with its oh-so-appropriate old bike race photos & children's mural over to Duvall with a friendly greeting from Ronni & staff & then off I go, first over scary shoulderless bridge and road to W. Snoqualmie Valley Road, a comparatively easy flat (though still mostly shoulderless) 10 mile rural ride into Monroe Not much going on here on a Monday night except for a brutal massage (neck is my body part that hurts the most from bike riding!), a middle eastern meal and lots of silly tv at highway 2 bordering hotel room -- & next to roaring railroad tracks too. Slept fitfully in anticipation of following days' two year fullfillment (choosing

 Didn't seem so very far next to the wee International District/Chinatown branch (library names replacing dashes with slashes now): with a very appropriate display of tea cups inside:

Greenbridge

 Very close to White Center (and methinks, not too far from some of the SW Seattle branches I had biked to which now seemed so long ago already!) I came upon Greenbridge! Not only one of the only branches without their collection online, but also having no music CDs to check out (what sacrilege!) but also about the only branch without a bike stand outside to lock up to...! But at least one staffer inside recognized me from the occ. post about this bike venture I have been putting on the KCLS staff association facebook page!
