This morning I’m obsessed with these yellow Dr. Seuss things. #pct2018 #desert

Tiny butterflies

Cousins are the best!

My little cousins all of a sudden got nearly as tall as I. They both came over holding their big books so we are definitely related.

Enough with spending all the money on all the things! Time to get this hike started, before the desert gets too hot! Also, can I bring this cat🐈?* * * * #pct2018 #pctig #pacificcresttrail #packing #trekking #gear

Trying out my new stove and pot set up. Turns out that a 700 ml cook pot is a tiny little thing. Not even big enough for a whole ramen wafer. Broken into pieces, it cooks up fine with some kale and peas from mom’s garden. #pct2018 #toaks #homemadegear

Got home this morning to find an explosion of PCT gear waiting for me! #whatalldidiorder But first a cuddle with my furry Finncat. #pct2018 #gearup #backpacking

Duck, I love you, don’t leave me.🦆💔

My final temple stop- back at the first one! I finished my ride around Shikoku and visited all 88 temples. I am having lots of feels about finishing this pilgrimage. I think I want to come back and do it again, maybe in reverse.

Beware the people-eating Ushioni, the ox demon that once tormented the locals at Negoroji Temple.👹

Cute cat things of the day. Tiny cat, Henro cat, cat toe socks!💕🐱🐾

I am not a fan of camping or cycling in the rain. I’ve been known to hide out in hotels whenever it gets wet. Not an option at the end of the trip with time getting short and many temples to go. Last night I lucked across the perfect rainy night beachfront shelter-didn’t even put on the rainfly!

@barachoutdoors I didn’t fight any monks at Temple 58 but I did see some monkeys up in the trees.

Sunset over the Inland Seto Sea.

Sundown at the free camp.

Fun statues along the way.

This last bit of Kochi is so pretty but long rides between temples. I am loving all the views of the Pacific and meeting other Henros along the way.

I found these two abandoned kitties on the road to Temple 31. Soooo, now I have two cats? Also, I am starving but I can’t get up to make food because I finally got them to stop crying.
