Got to the bridge at about 12:30 and had lunch in the shade of concrete, leaning against it because it was the only cool thing for miles around, the only thing I can say is the day is sizzling hot.
I think I will lay out until 2:30 or 3 and let it cool off a little. I only have about 7.5 miles left having done 9 in the heat already maybe I'll take a nap even
Well I only sat under the bridge till 1:30 then hiked on, once I climbed over the ridge onto the side with the lake the breeze was a little better.
For a 15 mile day it was one of the hardest. It quite amazing how the heat just saps your strength.
But tomorrow it's bath day with motel room. Yeah

HIKING 2012

"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, Pepsi in one hand, backpack in the other, yellin' "Holy Sh**, What a Ride!"
