Days 202 and 203: Wine and Backpacks...

Yesterday, after work, I show my 22 year old Progeny the gastric hedonistic side of the Napa Valley. Is sitting and eating at an outdoor restaurant an outdoor activity? How about the swollen belly walk thereafter?

Home today. I finish packing the moleskin, the J and B Scotch, two gallons of Gatorade, two water bottles, an extra pair of shoes, Walden, clothes and various other implements of carrying your home on your back. This blog will be silent for awhile. Tomorrow Joni will drop off the Therapist, the Abbott and Yours Truly at the Trailhead.

This is an ambitious hike. Alternative plans might need to be made on the trail. I'll be back with a full report next week.

And best of luck to Allan, too! Sorry bout that, I'd just gotten back from a steep hike and wasn't thinking clearly.
