Day 29

Day 29

Day 29: 19 miles

I slept in until 8 today and made it a shorter day to give my body a bit of a break after 2 huge days and less sleep. It was not a super easy day though. It was lightly raining basically all day off and on and I was walking in pretty deep snow all day until 5pm. Then I finally got some dirt to walk on for a while.

One of the worst feelings in the world is putting on wet clothes. In the middle of the day I took my shoes and socks off for a bit to let my feet dry. Before I put them back on I wrung out my socks with an uncomfortable amount of water coming out and then put them back on while screaming internally. I imagine childbirth doesn’t feel too great but putting on wet socks is probably a close second.

Another thing about these all day rains is that it really takes away the need to stop and take pictures. I don’t even take any side trails to a view if it’s raining cause the only thing I’ll see is the cloud that I’m in. This stunning shot today was taken while I was taking a short break under a pine tree.
