We brought our A game today. We started at 4:30 am and even though I felt like my feet were dragging all day we still managed to do 17 and 3/4 miles and get into a hotel room before noon!
We enjoyed some AC and hand-washed our laundry before we went out to find some lunch and cold beer. Now we are back in our hotel room. Doug is lying on the bed with a pillow over his head trying to block out the cacophony of pig and duck noises coming from outside our window.
This is the beer that we had with our lunch today. Can you imagine trying to order a bottle of this in a crowded and noisy bar?

excellent!! cacophony is one of my favorite words. except when it keeps doug from sleeping, of course.
The ducks and pigs settled down eventually. Besides, we cause enough of our own ruckus. We start walking at 4:30 am and wind up every dog we paas
The best beer I ever had was on a camping trip to Alaska in the 1970’s. We had soaked in a beautiful hot springs along the Alaskan Hwy. and felt like boiled lobster. We went back to the camp site & had a very cold Canadian beer (more alcohol than American beer) and it was the finest & most refreshing drink that I ever had…of course I didn’t stop with just one…but that’s another story!
Pigs and ducks. Likely won’t hear that when you get home.
Love reading all your entries!
Thanks Marie, when I get home I’ll just hear my chickens. I miss them.
