22nd June
We woke about 6.30 smokes says to me that his foot still hurts and he will take another zero. I said I thought I may do that too .so when friend comes over we explain what we want to do. Nobodies friend wasn’t sure if he would stay or go but his ankle was annoying him too.
Smokes suggests later that we just buy a 12 pack and Chill, I am certainly up for that..I get up and waddle off to the restrooms .After I pack up my gear and move down to the red moose. There are several tents their one is Da-vinchi’s. Da vinchi is still asleep. Pip grabs me snail those shoes are still in the hiker box. So i wander into the red moose and grab them I can’t really see what size they are but they fit perfectly. There are tears in the side but not as bad as the Altras. So I’m fairly pleased. I wander back to my stuff and lie out on my pad..As I said I have managed to loose 10 days of blog so today I’m going to piece the days back .They may not be in the right order but ill try..I lay out Smokes photocopied pages and begin to write I know what happened but not sure of the order. I spend about four hours before I need a break,and i need more power. So i wander back to the restrooms as they have power socket.I so plug in my external battery.while I am there, there are people serving coffee and cake and it’s free so I sit and eat cake and drink coffee and chat to the locals. Next it’s a visit to the store as they have WiFi so that i can upload my blog…While there several hiker friends arrive Ten speed. Sochi, Tent spike
After a hour smokes says it’s beer time so we grab beer and head to the small garden by the church. .We find a beach and just chill in the sun drinking beer.later we are joined by ninja tank.then Foxy and Da vinchi appear with 2 lb of ice cream and spoons. Once all is finished we wander over to the saloon to watch the end of the footy with America playing. .Smokes buys more beer and his favourite shots of Jameson’s. We end up staying here relaxing. Then we get free pizza great.
We move outside to the deck and just chill chatting to the locals. Tent spike arrives also smiler, but it’s late so back to the Red Moose garden and bed
