Days 58 - 60 (May 16 - 19): 2 Zeros and a nero

So the last two days consisted mostly of buying and organising supplies, spending time at the post office, some lazing around and of course a lot of eating.

Gnu and myself hitched into Bishop to buy our groceries and some gear. We had a great chimichanga (deep fried burrito) at the Las Palmas restuarant there. Willin and Duck were also around town doing some shopping and we met them in the restaurant. We had pretty easy hitches there (from a lady staying in Bishop) and back (from the couple that manages the Mt. Williamson motel where Gnu stayed).

We also met Condor, who hiked the California section last year and is hiking the high sierra route this year. He has an amazing field book he uses to document and draw in about everything from the trail and makes some pretty cool post cards he sends off to people who request them on his site.

On Monday Brian came up from Lone Pine and the four of us went to the Sierras museum in town which was pretty interesting.

I also visited Jenny's cafe quite a few times over the last few days and had some great lunches and breakfasts there.

Today is Tuesday and we are heading back up to the trail  but will probably do only a couple of miles to the first camp site. Tomorrow we will head back over Kearsage pass and back  onto the pct.
