Day 14 - Zero part deux

Second day of our "get Coin back on his feet" project. He's still coughing like crazy but claims he feels better. I hope so because we have a 14 mile hike to the closest shelter from where we're at currently. We go through a town about 8 miles in, so we can ripcord if we need to. 

We caught a ride back to the trail (well a place close to the trail) today with another friend of Coin's. We're staying at a place called the Allenberry Resort, which is actually a fairly swanky place (like rooms are upwards of $150 a night) but they have a "Hiker rate" which is only $40 for a double room! Pretty awesome, right? So we'll be here for one more night of rest and then back into the heat tomorrow. I'm kind of looking forward to getting back on the trail. It's less comfortable obviously but I want to rack up more miles. More miles mean more money for Extra Life! Great motivator!
