Brief update since my last one got lost in cyberspace.

Day 5: 38 miles 195 total.

Disappointing day, held up repeatedly by storms training off the mountains to the SW.

6pm at Norris, brief break I make an attempt to make it a 50 mile day to Ennis. No such luck. Put up tent by the roadside in the nick of time. Gilligan’s frickin Island for the next thirty minutes. Just wind after that. Slept like a baby.

Two hours (12 miles) to Ennis, 50-70 miles to the next for-sure town after that, will prob’ly be roadsiding it tonight again.
