Aug 19, Bend, OR Nero Day

I spent the day with friends and family.  What could be better?  Darlene and I went to Starbucks for coffee.  Then we went shopping and I bought a new hiking shirt.  My old one was falling apart.  We had lunch at Madelines Grill with an old coworker and good friend Scott Granger and his wife.  The rest of the day was spent lounging by the hotel pool.  There is always such a contrast between trail and town, it can feel surreal at times.  I'm heading back to the trail now to hike over the lava field in the cool of the evening.  There's a three mile stretch left.
