   You have to be prepared and get used to late summer storms in the sierra. It happens every other day, even though the skies were 100% clear an hour ago.

   Yeah, i think there's a good reason why i'm looking at Tom like that. He's a bit odd. So's Allen. And Gary. Me too for that matter. Hmmm.. maybe i should expect this behavior...

   Tom and Allen experiementing. This campsite near devil's postpile had it's own hotspring. Sweet. Nice to soak after a hard day. Allen got a shock when some inked up naked chick jumped in with him. Ha!

   This tree was still alive despite the fire and tilting at an angle. Whenever a breeze came it'd move around and creak... freaked us out at first.

   Water stop! Blister check for me too, these boots didn't fit me too well. Not the best time to find this out, on a multi-day.
