The morning was cool and humid and I did quite well in leaving Hiker Heaven before 7am. I couldn’t resist a breakfast burrito and coffee before I left town.A few miles of road walk gave way to winding tracks in low hills, with mist often swirling around. Unusual weather I’m told.I caught up with Little Bee and Second Chance and we on and off walked together for the remainder of the day, with guest appearances by someone I’d not met before, Feathers.

For those who don’t know Second Chance is getting quite well known in hiker circles:I will go to Casa da Luna tomorrow, the residence of another famous trail angel couple, the Andersons. I’m only here once so I don’t want to miss the experience. It does mean I’ll only do 8 miles though.
