The Trail Giveth The Trail Taketh
Miles: 3.6
Will post tomorrow when I have connection. (Yesterdays post) Low miles just to get back on the trail. We left trail days today. Had good breakfast at the Damascus Diner but was very secretly pissed off that the orange juice I got was Minute Maid with no pulp and they charged me for the refill. I really spent ten dollars on two cups of Minute Maid pulpless orange “juice”. As much as my meal. We resupplied and guys let me tell you I’m huge into Twinkies. I’ve been buying them like when they were being discontinued. Zero’s leg is majorly effed. It might be a shin splint from hell situation like Yuri (who deserves a better name I suggested lava chicken or flint and steel because he always makes fire). Zero is taking a zero day tomorrow. She won’t be with us for a bit but it will be ironed out. Yuri jumped to Damascus and is doing low miles. We will catch up to him by the time he feels better hopefully. We talked a lot about space today which happens to be his special interest. Atleast when it comes to spacecrafts and missions. Anyways I left my hiking poles at trail days. They are gone. I had to find a hiking stick which was atleast a bit fun. I got a big Gandalf staff looking one. Gus and Motor are finally camping with us again. The area we are in tonight has a lot of gunshots, dogs barking, and 2 stroke sounds. Apparently on the app a hiker said there’s just random pit bulls (pit babies) running around trying to spread kisses. I bought a sewing kit to stitch my shoe and did and felt proud then it broke. My shoe strap is hanging on a thread and I told everyone it will break tomorrow probably and they’re all like yikes, shrug. Greenman broke the eff out of his bear hang bag when the PCT hang stick broke so then I gave him my emergency trash bag. Seems like it’s going to be hot and humid the next few days. Beats the cold and rain. Okay. Stay tuned!
