Food food food and more food is all the buzz down here at Peavine Creek today. We've met another couple of hikers here filling up, Wendy and Gordon Bell, and they are laying out the spread to what's to come for us in the next section of trail. It's got my mouth watering, eyes can't even stay on the trail now. Sometimes it feels like the trail itself is just an obstacle, an ordeal between food caches, trail angels and discounted hiker friendly restaurants.
Today, we've got our sights set on Burney Falls State Park. There are burgers being grilled there with our name on them and hopefully some more peanut butter and bread to keep us chewing through 'til Old Station where a much raved about trail angel apparently resides.
The hiking this morning has been ok, not too special, not too bad. We passed by a logging operation in progress -- lots of loader and dozers and other machinery just over the ridgeline sent eerie squeals and creaks, rumbles and snaps through the forest.
We're cooking up some pasta for lunch on the side of a logging road. the sun is shining and the birds are making a nice racket. It is a sweet summer day.
