Mexico to Canada: "Some Pictures"

Some thoughts before departure...

I am still not a vet, doctor, lawyer, dog trainer, cia agent, fbi agent or a navy seal so...walk
I am doing this for the challenge of course, and I hope to gain a confidence that comes with this type of endeavor. But also I hope to gain some new knowledge about the world and the truths that reside in it.
Am I walking to "find myself"? Or just to take a walk. You decide...and you'll probably be right.
I'm not in the best shape of my life, but I do have a lot of new great gear so....
After living with my parents the last 2 years, it makes perfect sense to walk 2650 miles - alone.
Yes there will be bears, cougars, rattlesnakes and scorpions both imagined and real along the way. I'm definitely more worried about those imagined.
Am I scared? Not as of yet, more of just a constantly increasing anticipation. But check back with me on the 3rd night in the desert.
I tried to keep my pack fairly light, but I definitely would not call it ultralight. Somehow when I added up all my ultralight gear and put it in my ultralight pack, I ended up with just slightly heavy.
My biggest concern for this trip is that I get too hungry somewhere along the way, my brain goes awol as it usually does when I get hungry and subsequently you never hear from me again...I'll try to eat frequently.
I am not Christopher McCandless. This is not Into the Wild.
