Down Day in Eureka - Day 24

Got up to a really wet, foggy morning.  After a 5 mile ride, we got a nice room at a boutique type motel  in Old Town Eureka.  We found Eureka to have a really nice old town area with restored late 1800's Victorian architecture. They also had a bike shop where Ed was able to replace his mirror that got broken when the wind blew so hard it blew his bike over 4 days ago. The sun came out in the afternoon and we walked the downtown area, had a couple nice meals and a great cup of fresh made ice cream. Days off are a nice change from on the bike but they are still busy as we have laundry to do, shopping for groceries, exploring the town, catching up on the blog and sometimes drying out the damp camping gear.  Still helps our bodies to have a break.
