Today was a nero, as we only hiked 4.9 miles to the Pacific Crest Trail crossing of Highway 2.
We met JJ at the highway and he gave us a ride into town along with Gotta Walk who we met on the trail just a few minutes earlier. Gotta Walk has hiked just about everywhere, including the 5,000 mile American Discovery Trail and the Triple Crown. We all went into town and had a great breakfast.
JJ dropped us off at the Pines Motel, where we cleaned up and resupplied at the local grocery store. We were both still a little tired from yesterday’s climb so we mostly relaxed in our room. We did a little online shopping – Lon is looking very svelte lately and other hikers have been noticing too. He ordered a smaller size of hiking pants. He, of course, attributes his weight loss to Deb eating more than her share of the food.

I’m enjoying your blog! What kind of technology are you using to send posts from the trail? I know that cell phone coverage is sporadic.

We are using a Verizon iPhone 5s for all posting. Cell coverage is pretty good in Southern CA, but I expect it to become less frequent north of Tehachapi.
