Mt Laguna

The good news today is that there was no condensation on the inside of my tent. I've never experienced that. Made it so much easier to pack up. The other good news, and this one is even better, is that I woke up with no pain or stiffness! Hike on!

Unfortunately the good news of the day is overshadowed by the one piece of bad news. Dad's sick. This morning he said he felt like crap. Shortly after he said he was dying. This is not good! He's a pretty tough cookie so I know it's bad. He sucked it up and we made it six miles to Mt Laguna. Mt Laguna is a little mountain town with a general store, restaurant, and outdoor outfitters. It's also a hang out among hikers. They have some cabins available and dad got one for the night, hoping to sleep off whatever he has. I benefit by getting to shower :) (The picture shows a day and a half of trail dirt. Be thankful it doesn't come with smell!) Dad was asleep by the time I got out of the shower so I'm hanging out on the front porch of the general store waiting for him to wake up to go eat. I decided an A&W rootbeer and an ice cream sandwich wouldn't spoil my lunch too much :)
