Departed Centralia 5 minutes late.  Not a big deal, I think we regained part of that down time as the high ball was put to the test.  We screamed out of Centralia, tore through Chehalis before I even had sat down and got connected.  Mitch was Conductor for the train and greeted me with a hearty, "Hello Adron, I haven't seen you in a while!"  Always good to know the staff!

I decided I was going to camp out in the Bistro with the laptop.  I popped down with a young lady and set my junk all up.  A few minutes later two kids joined us as we tore through the wilderness of Washington.  The last leg of my trip appears as though I'll have company.

As we made way through the woods we passed one crossing which I remembered when Aaron, Steve and I where running around and grabbing photos.  They definitely knew the good spots, which one of these days I'll have to re-trace in the Z or maybe go the crazy route and bike it.  Me attempting to bike between Portland and Seattle or even just Centralia would be a multi-day effort for sure.

...with that I'm back in the code among the tranquility of the tracks...
