It's almost 8:30 and I'm in my HH on a bluff along the mighty Mississippi. It's almost dark and a barge is making it's way up the river far below me. Had a good meal and a nice cup of Starbucks instant coffee. There's a cool breeze out of the east which is Illinois blowing west into Missouri. I'm on the Peewah trail in the Trail of Tears State park. It was hot hiking but it's supposed to drop down to 58 tonight. First time out with the new Edge tarp and the Phoenix 3/4 under quilt. Life can be good even when it's hard. Seems somehow wrong to have a signal and be posting but felt like sharing. Saw a deer come down to the river and wade around drinking....another barge...
Enjoy the night
