Thoughts

So I decided days ago that this is the last thing ai will thru-hike. I find myself too focused on the goal or the miles, and less on the scenery and beauty. I knew this would be a good place to do it. As beautiful as Tahoe is, I've seen it a thousand times. I've still stopped at the vistas, of course, but have done almost no sidetrips to other lakes or peaks. Those are to be saved for smaller trips around the lake I suppose.

This is also the longest trip I intend to take /ROFL on. He loves hiking, but not for more than a couple days. He's just not in shape. The way he limps in the morning but is fine later tells me he's sore not injured. He was, after all, just lying around watching tv when I took him on this 2-week trip. He could get in shape for a longer hike but I don't want a dog in that good of shape, I want lazy lounging /ROFL. And he still loves dayhikes.
