Go hiking up road with loaded backpack to prepare for thru hike. Only going 2 or 3 miles up, rest, come back. Get to like 2 1/2 miles going up the road and some truck comes down the road...stops, asks me if I'm okay...yeah, just preparing for a thru hike...he keeps going...little bit later he comes back by....I keep waking back to my girlfriend waiting in the truck.... meanwhile, she's texting me and calling me to see if I'm alright not knowing I don't have my phone on me. Then a sheriffs truck pulls up and some old dude tells me there's been break ins in the area and the realtor was concerned because he saw someone walking on the road, yadda yadda yadda....he leaves up the road to calm the realtor and tell him it's just a hiker, I suppose. He comes by and says hi and goes on his way again. I get back to the truck and (I'll call her A.) A. is all concerned and says, "What the fuck? Go for a hike and get profiled for a good ole' B n E...that's fucking retarded. We're moving."
And that's how you end up with reservations for 2 at a KOA campground tiny cabin for a week in another state while we find jobs and kick rocks for 3 months until our thru hike...shit man...
A couple of nights ago I dreamt I was a Zoid Fuel dope plant that I've got out in the bush. Nice dream until a mosquito started buzzing around my face, but I experienced it as the plant.
January 13th, 1974. I show up at my dates house in New Rochelle, Debbie & I were both 17 yrs old, it's Super Bowl Sunday and the game is on, her father scrutinizes me carefully and quizzes me as to why I wasn't watching the game.
I was tongue tied and looked guilty as hell, he'd have killed me if he could've read my mind. I'm pretty sure he didn't want Debbie going out w/me that night but.......
I had a girlfriend named Debbie around that same time period..She was almost 19 and I was almost 20...
I had first met her on a blind date...
She was beautiful, and had yellow hair up top and down below.
She tasted like candy.
I should have married her and taken her around the country with me...
