Day 197

Slept great and was thankful that I found such a good spot. Packed up and was ready for a 17 mile day into town where I had a hotel room waiting for me. Unfortunately, traffic became the whole day for me. It was all I could think about as I walked. People were just not giving a crap about me and for some reason, thought that it was ok to fly by me in the same lane when there was a whole empty lane next to them. Dashed line and a clear view for miles. I have no clue why people woudlnt get over. I spent all day trying to figure out how they were justifying their choices and I never could figure it out. They are just some true assholes. That’s all there is to it.

 

I made it into town thankfully, and went to a store to pick up resupply food for my next stretch into the desert. I stopped into a hardware store to pick up some tent stakes. Utah and Nevada have been hell on trying to keep tent stakes from bending. I’ve basically been on one huge rock since the Rocky mountains. They didn’t have any though. He told me where I could probably find some while I’m in town and figured id get to thet later. I went to the hotel and wow. Its nice. I ordered food and that was that. The Revenant was on HBO and I caught it right when it started. That was my night.
