    Well here it is at the end of July it seems like I should be further down the road then what I am but I'm not complaining about it because it has been a good trip so far I was thinking about the trip so far well I got started on may 3th I head out of crystal River around 9am with new gear I gotten me a new backpack wach was cool and because I got me this backpack I got to thinking I could get a tent and so I did and then I got me a 12inc bbq grill a coffee pot and coffee cup a spoon and a fork some seasoning and of course my coffee stuff lol and 5 changing of clothes so here we go now the first time I put it on it was heavy but I walked with it for a while and I don't know how long I was on the road for days that is but anyways I gotta looking at my tent bag and it said that the tent was 7.6 pounds no wander way. It so heavy because of that I'm guessing that the whole bag is a easy 10 pounds but I'm still carrying it so anyways I left crystal River Florida may 3th got to Perry Florida that evening and I checked in a campground the next morning I picked up and got on the road I was heading for interstate 10 wache I got there a few days later watch was ok because I had time to kill and I didn't have to be in baton rouge la until June 11th because I had a Amtrak train ticket waiting on me on that day well I spent another full week in Florida until I got me a ride all the way to baton rouge la well that was ok but now I had about a month to kill a I just did that now the day has come to get on the train where I rode it for 3 day's to west glacier Montana on the evening of June 13th I got off the train there at 9PM the next day I walked about 3miles and I stopped and signed up for Whitewater rafting the next day it was only a 4 hour on the I did that I made camp Tuesday night and Wednesday night in the same place now Thursday morning i started and walked about 4 hours and stopped for the night now Friday morning I walked all day and I made it to a town called hungry horse I stopped in that town for a week now a week later and it is Saturday at 2pm I left hungry horse and made it to Columbia falls well just on the outside of the town where there was a river so I made camp there and i made my coffee with River water because I got a water filter for that well i stayed there the next day and on Monday at 7am I left that spot I went into white fish I got there a took me a coffee break and after about an hour I left there walked 3 more hours and stopped at this little coffee shop got me a cup of coffee and then I got back on the road walked about 45 minutes and got a ride all the way through kalispell and I walked on the outside of town about 1.5miles out of town where I have been for 2 days because of the heat the last few days it's been double digits here and that's way to hot to even try to walk in with a 10 pound pack but in the morning I will get on the road now you are up to speed I think until next timeRead more
