Remember, one of my PCT goals is to  be the first person to thru balloon the 
trail.  I will take off at Campo  and head north over the trail with my 
propeller driven balloon/basket.   Over the dry stretches I will yell down to 
hikers, "Say, I am running low  on ice up here for my drinks.  Anyone down there 
know how far the next  trailtown is?"  And over the cold section; "Hey, down 
there, anyone want to  trade some hot pepperoni pizza for a hot extra cheese one?  
Oh, you don't  have any.  That's okay, I will just eat this one."
