…continued hiker’s journal…

Walked w/ Ellie a couple of miles shy of Bakerville this morning. Was out by 05:55 hours and walked up on ‘the bridge to nowhere’ a mile past Plume and turned west/uphill and walked to an old home site. The concrete pilings and cement floor is all that is left. Passed over many braided running creeks from tree line and took a drink often at these.

Again, walked up along the tracks in the valley that separates G-town from Plume. Tossed a stick in the creeks for Ellie and although she did not wash away at times she swam to bring in the stick. She is a good dog. Kyle’s energy in my mind’s eye is embodied in this dog’s animas.

Came back to the house after 11AM and made coffee and stripped down to shorts, sat in back and read more about Ned and Jane walking the pipeline in Alaska. He met a couple that is in recovery and describes his interview w/ the man. Good reading overall. I am enjoying this season of reading narratives.
