Boredom on the Trail

My campsite last night was secluded and quiet, so I got a good night’s sleep.  I was underway just after 6:30.  The people with whom I had been hiking, Steve and Mike, fell in with another group.  I was not “invited” so I’m on my own again.  It’s just as well.  I’m putting on more miles, which I need to do because I’m going to be short food on the way into Tehachapi.

During the hike today, I became acutely aware of the boredom.  Whatever there is to see in the desert, I think I’ve already seen it.

I finished the day with a big climb and then found another protected, secluded site to make camp.  I’m getting close to Hiker Town.  I’ll have to stop in to buy a few provisions.
