Ok, third time's the charm. I keep trying to post and who knows where my hours of typing on qwerty is going. So far the hike is good. Been getting about 16 miles in. Yesterday was hard and hard to get moving but we made it. One would think we'd sleep good @ night but we're too sore to get comfy & too tired to try.
We passed Hyatt Resevoir yesterday and camped near Howard Prairie Lake (close enough to see a little but away from bugs). Don't use rain fly @ night so we watch sunset, moon and stars. Awesome. Last night a doe stopped in for visit but left when we reached for camera. Our goal today is Brown Mt., about 15 miles. We start with a climb of 1500 ft in 5 miles. Long and hot...thanks for the encouraging thoughts of those of you who are following. I'm struggling with discouragement today. Love the happy hikers.
The Journey of a 1000 miles begins one step at a time, oh wise ones. And you're going less than that--hang in there, you're getting closer ever day.

Don't be discouraged! Think how far you've come, not just so far on your hike, but in the last several years. You are amazing, and you can do this!!! It may not turn out like you thought, it may not be like you expect it to be. But you can do it, and you will have such great memories to look back on for years to come! Keep going!
