88 MILES, THEN SETUP CAMP IN A THUNDERSTORM.
After a long day covered in a glaze of sticky sunscreen, road-dirt, and sweat, the only thing on my mind is a shower. Not a downpour, Not thunder and lightning, Not gale-force winds, Not setting up a tent, Not digging holes with a knife in in the sand to keep a swimming-pool from forming under your bed....BUT SOMETIMES YOU JUST CANT HAVE YOUR WAY! Can you? I guess that's what an adventure is.
Just when you think you don't have one ounce of energy left in your body you have to wrangle a tent in 50 mile an hour winds, get every little thing you have with you inside it, climb all over eachother trying to get situated, eat a really gross dinner of things you don't have to cook (don't give a damn either), pass out from exhaustion, and wake up every 13 seconds all night long because the thunder, lightning and wind is so intense you think you're Done For.
But then, this is where you are in the morning. And its all good.
