Hiya Darlin'!
Hard to believe this journey is nearly over! Woke up to a mostly sunny morning, which gave me the opportunity to do a good cleaning and drying of my tent. It was a leisurely morning, and we celebrated that the sun was making appearances. We packed up and hit the trail after noon, in no hurry since we only had a bit over five miles to go. This was a beautiful trail, one of my favorite sections of the South Boundary trail. I don't know if it was because of some more stunning views, or because there was finally no dust, or that it just smelled so fresh after the rain, but I found the whole experience just lovely. We mostly followed the Snake River, though we often were quite a ways above it, and at the end of the day, arrived at our camp, again on the Snake River. All the rain has turned the river a milky color, but we expect it will be mostly clear again by morning. Keaton tried his hand at fishing, while my focus was to pull everything out of my canvas duffel and set it out to dry. That was mostly successful, with the bag and all the contents getting dry enough to put away after dinner. My sandals managed to get dry, as well as my sheepskin saddle pad. I had to wear my rain pants today, not because it was raining, but because my saddle was so wet. Had another lovely dinner and another evening of going to bed early and reading. We have an early start tomorrow, we have about nine miles to reach to trailhead and many hours to reach Cody. What an amazing journey this has been! Good night, baby! Love you!
