Attack! Hummingbird.

DAY FOURTEEN, May 23, 23.9 Miles
At mile 255.9
I picked an awful spot to camp last night, the wind went away but I was on the most awkward backwards slope that you don't notice until you lay down. Dang. Today was fun though. I liked today. Above 7000ft most of the day and in trees. Nice temperature. Little wind. Things to look at. Best lunch spot yet, got to eat a ton of food, cause I'll be in Big Bear a day early. The miles came easier than they have the last couple of days, despite about 5000ft worth of climbing, took loads of long breaks and still made camp before dark. Nice campsite too. About three miles back was a cooler full-o-fruit with a lay-z-boy hanging out next to it, provided by the awesome Grayson of Big Bear Hostel. Perfect. Todd and myself had just been talking about fruit a mile before that. Actually, we also had the same idea to catch and train Hummingbirds. There's heaps around, and they're completely adorable. We will train them to eat the bugs that annoy us so. Their names will be Rudiger, Pall and Airwick. It's getting pretty cold now. Saw a lion, tiger and two grizzlies. Something to do with animal actors I think. They were in cages and looked ultra bored.
