[pct-l] Hiker Humor - Hiker Heaven

[hiker97 at aol.com]

Our intrepid PCT hiking hero, Guppy, stopped into Hiker Heaven for a few days on his thru-hike to Canada. He was warmly greeted by Lighting Rod and Buzz Saw, the gracious hosts. He noticed the horses and many stray dogs they have rescued.

After spending a great afternoon chatting with the other hikers and L-Rod, the evening meal was prepared. However, Guppy noticed a film like substance on his dinner plate and questioned the other hikers. 

“Are these plates clean?“ asked Guppy. 

L-Rod quickly spoke up, “They're as clean as cold water can get ‘em. Yes, said some of the hikers, “The foods great. Just you go ahead and finish your meal.” 

The next morning Guppy was ready for a great Hiker Heaven breakfast. Again, he was concerned about the plates as his appeared to have tiny specks around the edge that looked like dried food and asked, “Are you sure these plates are clean?“

Without looking up one of the hikers said, “You were told you before, Guppy, those dishes are as clean as cold water can get them. Now don't you fret, just enjoy your meal.” 

Later that afternoon, Guppy was leaving to go Santa Clarita to visit the REI store. All at once one of the dogs started to growl at him and would not let him pass.

Guppy yelled, “L-Rod, your dog won't let me get to the ride into to town!” 

Without diverting her attention from washing hiker socks, she yells back, 
“Coldwater, go lay down now and don’t bother the hiker!!!”
