Day 62 June 19, 2008
Good night's sleep at the campground $9 for all 3 of us! Went to breakfast, then packed up the tent and left our stuff at the outfitter in town (so we don't have to carry the packs all over town, looking like the homeless people that we are!!) Went to Von's, bought a pint of Ben and Jerry's for the "early lunch" and now we are back here at the library! Thinking of going back to Whiskey Creek tonight for the $9.95 steak! I had a filet mignon last night with asparagus........oh my, that was just some amazing food! I will have the same thing tonight! And then we'll head back up to Red's meadow and be back on the PCT. My sister fixed the "comments" section on this blog, so anyone can say hello now, (just be nice) :) Thanks Chels! The Chief is uploading more pictures to his site right now and all I can say is, WOW! He has almost captured what our eyes have seen! You never know when he's snapping the pictures! Oh and he and Neighbor had a Lakers vs the Celtics bet going......looks like the Chief lost......that might cost him! Chances are before this hike is over, the Chief will be wearing a GREEN MOHAWK! Ha ha! Never bet against the Celtics! :) Oh, another thing I wanted to mention, the chickadees out here.....they don't say chick-a-dee-dee-dee. They say Cheese-burger! If that isn't annoying! ha ha! Ok, way over the 1 hour time limit at this library (but they have like 20 computers!) and the stomach is telling me, it's time to go! So, that's all for now!

Happy anniversary guys!
Got up and started hiking early, withing 20 feet from where we camped was a river crossing, sooo, after getting all packed up, shoes on and off we go........then it's take off the shoes, put on the crocs, roll up the pants, cross the river, sit down, dry the feet, socks back on, shoes back on, crocs on pack and away we go! 11.5 miles of easy walking to Red's Meadow. Met the Chief there (who saw a big bear on the way) and then we caught the bus down to Mammoth Mtn. Ski area and then caught a ride to town. Got a campsite for the night, then found the laundry mat, picked up some food, updated blog, showered, wandered around town, heard about $9.95 meals at Whiskey Creek (good steakhouse in town) and went there for dinner (yummm) Crashed at the campsite for the night.
