    Birthday update...

    Just like everything in my life, through the chaos comes orde... wait.. no, it's closer to more chaos, but in a nicer way. Today marks my 27th birthday. It started off with a water faucet shower and then a 10 mile hike up hill.

    During the course of the day we encountered several dangerous animals, lots of pretty views and some hot weather. Toward the end of the day when the sun was blazing and our feet felt like they were about to explode into nubbly shins, we come across an aid station for a marathon taking place in the middle of the desert.

    After this, the day goes like this.... gatorade and cookies in the middle of the desert, then we come out of the pine forest to find a tiny burger joint with a tree growing out of the center and blasting Amy Grant, we then get a ton of food and some birthday pie. To top it all off there is a store a few blocks away and a nice flat camp ground right by the trail.

    Today was a good day! Happy birthday me and thanks to everyone along the trail today who made it extra awesome!

    On another note, everyones pretty much dying, jay and kristina have electrical tape holding their feet together. I'm sure it will pass in the next 300 miles!
