It will be weird when I don't live outside anymore

As I'm still not allowed to hike or do anything strenuous, I had to look for alternatives and went car camping and paddling instead.
It was fun, too but not the same than backpacking. :-(

Finally wrapped up my contract doing trail guides for IHC this past week. I celebrated by spending 4 nights out on Powell. Now that I'm done doing work hikes, I might just get back to doing a little backpacking this fall. But then again, I feel like I've hiked enough for work this year that I might just play on the boat until the snow flies.
