Me 2007-07-07 Slow times in Tahoe
July 7th, 2007Third zero day in a row. Lots to eat, lots of sitting down and plenty of ice. My shin is feeling a lot better and I’m ready to hit the trail for a few miles tomorrow.
Lucky Joe’s family really have been wonderful, his nephews and niece are fun to play with and their parents are very encouraging of the trail thing. It’s a pity that Vortex and Blue Sky didn’t get to experience this. I think it may have tipped the balance in the trail’s favour. But alas it was not to be. They’ve gone home and only Blue Sky plans to return, and that won’t happen until Oregon.
It’s obviously very different down here in a town than out there in the woods, but this town is something else. There’s a heat wave going on right now so there’s a lot more of people on display than you see on the trail everyday. So settling in to town life hasn’t been that hard.
Distance today: 0 miles. Total distance: 1154.8 miles
