I can’t believe I’m going to eat this much food in 3 weeks. I’ve organized my resupply boxes to be sent to 4 different locations along the trail. One box had to be sent Fed Ex, so it’s already on its way. The remaining 3 boxes will be mailed out tomorrow. It’s always exciting to receive a resupply box when you’re getting low on food. The down side is that your pack weight will once again be much heavier. I guess that’s the price you pay for being able to eat. I’m not very good at foraging. Actually, I’ve never foraged, so I guess you could say I’m not good at all at it. Okay—I’ll be happy with the weight (for a minute or two, then I’ll whine about it again😜).

Tomorrow’s task is to actually get my pack (Olfrie, as I call her — thanks for the name, Karen) packed and ready. It shouldn’t be a big task. I don’t like to pack it too soon or I second guess myself as to whether I included everything I should have and I start going back in and checking.  Once it’s packed, I think all the logistics (with the exception of my return shuttle and flight) will be complete and I’ll be set to go. I’m counting down the days and looking forward to getting in the woods.
