I woke up and got going by 6:30. The trail went through a deep green forest today, which was great.
What's that in the distance?.... Noooooo! More wind turbines!! I haven't seen these since the desert.
Nothing much happened today. I was extremely bored. When you hike 14 hours a day for months, it gets boring. I'm saving my batteries until I get my new charger, so I can't listen to music. Sometimes I run entire films through my mind, scene by scene.
Mt. Shasta was clouded over, so I missed out today. Hopefully tomorrow it's clear.
My feet were hurting early again. I thought obsessively about my injuries today. My left foot feels like it has a stress fracture, and my right foot feels like it has ligament/tendon damage. Every step, all day is hard. My mileage went down today, and it worries me.
Blueberry bagel...add Fritos.
I don't even care anymore. I just combine whatever is in my food bag. This was good.
Earlier this morning, I saw Diogenes and Claire, and Cougar and Pensioner. I saw nobody for the rest of the day.
At one point I sat on a log in the deep, lush forest and nearly fell asleep.
A deer almost walked right up to me. I listened to the forest and heard life everywhere. Animals, birds, insects; it's hard to feel alone with this much life filling the forest, not to mention the plants.
Today was a rough day. I don't know what to do about my feet. It's all I think about. I pitched my tent early, hoping to get some extra sleep tonight.
After all this time, I think ramen is still my favorite dinner.
I really hope tomorrow is better. I hope my body feels stronger. Later!

I got water from Clark Spring.
