Tacoma to Pullman
Z06 Returns from Alaska — Reunion in Tacoma
Day 23 — the Z06 was back. After days at sea on a cargo ship returning from Anchorage, the car arrived in Tacoma.
The Z06 was back.
After loading the car onto a cargo ship in Tacoma on Day 13 and flying to Alaska separately, Ray had spent Days 14-22 in Alaska and Washington State without his Corvette. On Day 23, the ship arrived in Tacoma — and Ray was there to meet it.
The reunion was a relief. The car had made the 56-hour sea voyage from Anchorage without incident, and Ray was back behind the wheel of the ALL50 Z06 for the first time in ten days.
A visit to Seattle — the Emerald City, home of Pike Place Market, the Space Needle, and the birthplace of Starbucks — before heading east to Pullman, Washington, where Ray's nephew Michael was a student at Washington State University.
