The second green propane canister just ran out today, which is the 41st day The Cramper has been down trail. For some reason, it's been the biting flies that have come out here in Punderson this morning. I lit my last remaining citranella candle at breakfast.
An old friend from high school passed away a few days ago. My Facebook news feed is feeling a little empty right now. And the last of the Christmas in July people moved out of the park on 2 days ago. I am starting to feel alone. I came for the distance, not the solitude. However, as a solo hiker, the one sometimes comes with the other.

This is The Cramper's 40th day down trail. So far, the stove burners are working well, but I went through a green canister of propane in this time. At first, I wasn't sticking to just one, so, it could be as much as 1.25 canisters. The cooler has lost 4 of its 12 hinge screws. If I don't fix it soon, it will completely fall apart.
I have gatorade that is sealed in a zip loc bag. It handled the rains and I just had some today. The mosquitos continue to be terrible here in Punderson. Other than that, I hiked around Stump Lake. The maintenance crew pulled up in a Gator and asked how I liked the trail. Personally, I have mixed feelings about the trails being cut to 60". As a distance hiker, that's what we call a "boulevard." And boulevards are undesireable.
