the second night of tenting was much
warmer than the first. i snuggled into the
soft grass & passed out. we woke up,
ate breakfast, washed our dishes & filled up our bottles
in the river and were on the move again.

day #2 hike was somewhat brutal.
every muscle in my body ached
and my legs are swollen with bug bites. eek.
but i feel very accomplished & GOOD.
the landscape felt so wild and free.
