More Hikers Get Off The Trail; On To Seattle and Lee

This morning another 6-10 hikers showed up in Winthrop. Virtually all of them had bailed at Rainy Pass due to impassable trail conditions due to the snow. Their arrival tended to support my decision from yesterday....still, it is disappointing to be off the trail.
Figaro's mom showed up around 1400 and the ride over the pass and back to the Seattle area was uneventful although I must say, Figaro's mom is a "colorful" driver and towards the end, her Grand Prix driving skills were truly evident. I got to a Best Western hotel to get a shuttle ride to the airport just in the nick of time. Thanks very much Figaro & Mom!
Got to the airport in plenty of time to get the rental car, check in at the hotel and then meet Lee when she arrived. Boy, she certainly was a pretty sight for sore eyes!! It was so great to see her at long last.
