Keflex has done wonders, and early tomorrow morning we are headed back on the trail. We have a 3-mile walk to get back onto the trail. The swelling has gone down, the pain has all but dissolved, and after nearly a week of recovery, it's time to get back out there.
We anticipate that we will work our way back into the swing of things. The weather is supposed to be good, the grade's soft, and the water plentiful. It's 100 miles to Wrightwood, and we are planning on 5 days. We've been discussing changing our strategy a little bit. Including eating more during the day and less at night. Spread out the calories and energy. We purchased food for the next 5 days at the Von's here in Big Bear, it's amazing how we are getting better at knowing what to buy.
We have more fuel, and both are anticipating packages at Wrightwood. There are plenty of opportunities to pull off the trail if the foot doesn't react as thought.
Over the past week, we've spent time with some of the most caring people. Certainly the folks in Idyllwild at the Silver Pines Lodge. Chris Singer was extremely helpful, and we are both looking forward to staying there again when we revisit the section from Idyllwild to Big Bear. And when we open our Chicken and Waffles restaurant entitled the Crowdy Jerk. We've tried to help Ed at the Nature Inn realize his dream of getting out of California. He says the government out here is too crazy, they are too involved in everything. Does he not sound perfect for Tennessee?
We have two fire detours, road walks, and a trip across the Mojave in the coming two weeks. If you want to send anything, mail it to Agua Dulce before June 1st.
