  2. I love the fish eye look. especially the view from inside you tent. Also liked seeing the sunset image with your tent in the shot. It is neat to see where you sleep. thank you for sharing. I know it as much an emotional trip as a physical one. Just know you are supported by many, even though we don't always post, text, or email you.

  3. "From the gekko". *groans and rolls eyes at bad joke* ;-)

    These photos really help illustrate your great descriptions of your journey! It's all so beautiful! I second the thank you for showing us your tent inside and out. I've been curious to see how much room you have.

    Sounds like you're all lean muscle now, not that you had body fat to spare. I'm glad to read that you're honoring your energy on a day to day basis. That self awareness will get you through this adventure healthier and happier. Keep up the great work!

    1. Thanks for following, Suellen! Yes, managing energy is a huge part of this. I think of it as playing a months-long chess tournament; gotta be thinking many moves ahead, maybe a few games ahead. Keeps it interesting.
