[pct-l] Re: Section E Expedition

Thank you for your kind words about our humble Hiker Heaven.  It was a real pleasure having hikers around!  Come back any time you're in the area.

p.s. I'm hoping that my almost-wayward son didn't cause any commotion for you all out in the guest house. He told me he got home around 4 a.m. (!) and you were all up and getting ready to head out.

The other two had a much faster pace than me too.? I walk very slow anyway, so I probably do not make a good trail partner.? Solo is fine with me.? That's backpacking.? You never know.<BR>
<BR>
Of course, I have a new battle plan to get out there again in a month or two.? Some people never learn.? I figure if I walk 10 miles per trip, then in 2050 I will have the whole trail done.? Hey, at least it's a plan. <BR>
<BR>
The Hiker Heaven in Agua Dulce was outstanding.? Really an unusual place to just drop into.? Amazing hospitality and Jeff and Donna are role models for the rest of us. <BR>
<BR>
All and all I enjoyed the stormy weather hiking and to see another trail town.? Also, as it turns out there was a medical emergency on my wife's side of the family and it was good that I came off the trail.? A backpacker picked me up when I was hitchhiking down the road for about 20 minutes and took me directly the Hampton Inn near Hwy. 5 with the Outback Steakhouse next door (not a short drive by the way).? Nice.? Very nice.? Things just seem to workout. <BR>

Happy trails, Switchback<BR>
