Tiger Lily


Meh. I wanted to sleep all day today. We camped by a road and last night at 3 am someone came and started up a diesel truck (that was apparently parked on the road just out of sight), let it idle for 20 minutes, and then drove away. A couple more cars drove by, too.

That plus the fact that we've averaged 22 miles a day for the past few weeks meant a billion, long breaks today. We planned a 25, but we only did about 23. Oh well, not the end of the world.

Lots of overgrown trail today, too. At least no poison oak - but a ton of flowers! Tiger lilies and yellow lupine (never seen that before) and little blue flowers and scarlet gilia... awesome color combinations.

Okay, time to kill some mosquitos in our tent before sleeping forever.
