Day 128, Mile 2302.8---A decent nights sleep last night. Walked this morning with Landshark and talked about religion for awhile. It was a really cool conversation that moved in and out of religion to societal life to career aspirations. It made the miles fly by and before i knew it we were finished with the main climb of the day. At the top of the ridge there were great views of where we had been and where we will be going. Hoffa got reception on his phone and managed to set a room for us in Packwood. I also used the opportunity to call my Mom since that "10 minutes" from Tuesday was now 3 days later. She was glad to hear from me. We made it down to White Pass by just after 1-ish. I got my box and a snack while the first group hitched. They waited about an hour and a half. Luckily they got picked up and about 5 minutes later myself, Hoffa, Pothead, and Good Times got a ride. Handled internet, laundry, re-supply, and a call to the parentos all before dinner. Pizza (i know) was had by all and pitchers of beer. The birthday celebration moved to the bar across the street and we kept the party going. It is late and i need to get the most mattress time possible. Heading out tomorrow after 2 breakfasts and some cruise logistic checks maybe. Thought of the day; the end is near. Song of the day; sheeeees my little whiskaaaay girrrrrrl by somebody country. Craving of the day; to workout the rest of my body, then have a nice protein shake.
JWC on the PCT
Post Script; i should mention that my blog support team, well my support team in general will be taking a cruise for the next week and the next post will not be up until sometime around the 15th. I should also mention that i have been "convinced" to have a welcome home party on the 4th of October at the parentos house. If you're interested the exact time will be posted at a later date... later than the 15th, obviously.

JESSE! I can't believe you're almost finished with this trail escapade! I'm sure you must feel pretty darn good about it all. It's been a great adventure, huh?(BTW, I'd have been happy to sub in for the absent support team,but nobody asked! So I guess the blog junkies will just have to wait!)
Jesse...I went to the beach for nine days, and then Joe took my computer away for several more days so that he could update my system...badly needed!...and so I could not read your blog for about two weeks. I was really feeling the pain! What will it be like for all of us "blog junkies" when you are no longer on the trail! I want to know more about the razors edge. Sounds amazing! Hope you managed to take some photos. Looking forward to your next entries. Love as always.....Andrea
