How about The Forest Gump Soundtrack in general? Diverse, energetic, thoughtful. There's something for everyone and every mood. I find just like watching the movie you find yourself growing with the progression of the music. It made for an awesome experience for me. Maybe you too!??
Then again, I'm kinda a Phish Head. So, give me a live cut of Run Like An Antelope any day! =)

A free kern regional transit bus gets you into lake isabella which has a von's and etc. Gazoogle for the sched. The section to KM isn't too tough, you can probably just do a long carry from tehachapi pass if you want.

> Hi Junaid,
> I know you did not specifically ask about this but I thought it could be helpful.
> I too sent a box to Mt. Laguna. However I found the store had ample, if expensive, supplies. Also folks had "jettisoned" huge quantities of comestibles into the hiker box there. I wished I had saved myself the trouble of sending a box and bought there instead. The price of overnight shipping could be as much as the premium the store charges for goods anyways. Just a thought.
> A lot of folks either sent their box directly to the store or called the PO and asked NICELY and the awesome Mail Person put the box in the store for them to avoid PO hours.
> Anyhow, last year I missed the PO and had to wait an extra day. I was like a lost puppy dog watching my new found trail tribe depart Mt Laguna without me :(
> It's all good cause I caught them and passed em in the San Felipe hills :)
> Anyhow, please don't be ticked off or think I am trying to tell you what to do.
> The Mount Laguna store has become Super Hiker Friendly since my last visit in 1991. Last year they treated us like gold!

In my case is has been diagnosed as chronic inflammation/ arthritis of the 2nd metatarsal joint in my left foot. It was precipitated by a subtle gait imbalance.
