I wish ! Only ten days, my first 'real' tour in 50 years.

After injury and rehab / training for over a year I considered myself just barely in condition to go, but I didn't want to wait till next year. I'm happy, though, as I now tell myself if I can do ten, I can do forty. And more.

I had to turn around this time because temperatures were expected to dip below freezing on the night after I got back and I only had my summer equipment. Next year I'll be able to head out at soon as it's warm enough and stay on the road as long as I want to.
