Our first rest day in Idyllwild has been SO GREAT that I have to share pictures. Here's a little peak into the lives and psyches of newbie thru hikers:
 |
| FRESH CLEAN LAUNDRY! We lumped all our stinky smelly clothes in the garbage can for a pre-wash, then hauled them to the laundry machine, and now the boys dig through the pile for their special socks & shirts with huge smiles |
 |
| What time is it, you ask? About 6:30am. I "slept in" and this is Breakfast #1. |
 |
| We've been talking about french toast for about a week and a half. Now we finally get to eat it for Breakfast #2. Left to right: Dr. Scooter, Boulder, Sunshine, Dog Off a Leash, Sweet Tooth, and Guy on a Buffalo. Sunshine is our chef. |
 |
| We ate 5 peieces of french toast each, crazy amounts of bacon, and a huge mixing bowl of whipped cream |
 |
| Then we all got pedicures. Scooter provided the foot massages while I cleaned, clipped and painted everyone's toesies |
 |
| We look SO GOOD. |
So we have one more night livin' the good life. I think popcorn, a fire in the fireplace, and Life Aquatic are on the agenda before we hike back up the mountain tomorrow morning.
Sending love! DP

ReplyDeleteWait, how many pieces of french toast did you eat!!!??? And... did any of the boys paint their toenails? Looks like you're having a BLAST! So glad.

The start to your journey looks so awesome already! Isn't it awesome how much food you can consume without consequence while thru-hiking?! Cheers to many more happy miles ahead, Kayla!
