Day 21 - Zero Hero

Miles Today - 0
Location - Hot Springs
Date - May 3

I blinked myself awake at 6 in the morning. Damn. Maybe watching some cartoons would help? I watched TV on my phone for an hour. Nope. I sighed, resigned myself to my fate, and got up to drink some coffee.

I had my resupply to do, so I hit the diner for breakfast, then the Dollar General next door. Then...huh. I had a whole day to do...nothing. Commence lounging on the lawn!

Rose and I met up to talk plans in the afternoon. The time for lazy days was over! We had been pulling 15-18 mile days and hitting shelters in the early afternoon. We would do one short day out of Hot Springs, and then 4 days of 20s into a hostel by the trail. Operation Kick Those Miles' Butts.

I got a 16 ounce burger for dinner and did more lounging. It's bizarre having so many hours to kill. I ended up in bed fairly early, telling myself that this night I would actually be able to sleep in.
