We'll dance around it like wild Indians.

DAY TWENTY-FOUR, June 2, 10.2 Miles
At mile 454.4
All foggy this morning, sleeping bag was a wee bit moist. Pretty cruisy walk into Agua Dulce. Longer than necessary (as usual) walk to Highway 14, the tunnel going under was awesome. Trail goes through Vasquez Rocks, which are impressive, but not overwhelming. Ha, "impressive, but not overwhelming", whatever. But it's true. Honest. Agua Dulce is awesome though. Nice enough town, but the focus is on Hiker Heaven, no doubt. Home of Donna and Jeff Saufley, it is incredible. www.hikerheaven.com. Few people here I hadn't met yet, but it's not too busy. In herd season they have a nightly limit of fifty hikers, which happens. Basically you drop your dirty washing, have a shower and relax. Most hikers have a zero here, and I'm expecting most of the folk I've been hiking with to appear tomorrow.
