Shadiest Campsite of the Journey

Behind a hotel in Antonito, CO...Awoke to the tourist train at 6:00AM..

By far the shadiest campsite of the trip...Got stuck no where near National Forest Lands and the hotel owner let me duck behind his sold out motel for free. McGyver (sp) had his pocket knife on him all night long just in case!

Big day of riding...Some intense but just making miles to the south trying to warm up and get to the desert! Got poured on for two hours across the Indian Reservation.

For the first 30 minutes I stay dry once it starts raining. The next 30 minutes I get damp. The next 30 I get wet and then the final 30 minutes, I am freezing and looking for a hot, cheap, shower.

How about that dead bear and the bear dawgs!!! Reminded me of ole Maine!!!

LS, Lenny Davis, Wanderer, Esteban, Poco a Poco, Poco Loco, are a few of my nicknames. Hope you enjoy my first attempt at blogging! I am going to ride my motorcycle, Isabel, down the The Great Divide Trail in the Rockies and then onto Tierra del Fuego, at bottom of South America. Both the blogging and riding should be interesting. And who knows how either will turn out, but it is time to get on the open road! I look forward to hearing from you all as we travel south together... Patagonia '06 Appalachian Trail GAME '04 Peru/... full info
