Goodness. I’m beat. To get to Glade 10 we had to hike down a very
steep incline. Hike is probably not the
best word as we were doing all sorts of shuffling and sliding to make our way
down. My vocabulary has been stunted… I
guess my mind is as tired as my legs are.
The way back up- that was a
hike. Thankfully Ranger Shane flagged us
a route that brought us to a much easier hill to scale. Even so I needed to call for a break and go
at my own pace to keep myself from overexerting. Right now I’m just thinking 7 days. No eerie calls or static screens involved,
that’s just the number of times I will have to make the trek. I almost regret my comment the other night
about wanting to climb around—almost.
One thing’s for sure, I’m going to come out of this 10 day stronger than
I went in.
As for what we did while we were in the Glade, I can’t tell
you. We did some top secret stuff for
Shane and the Rangers of the North.
Something involving the hindrance of some Dark Lord and his finding of a
golden trinket. Whoops, I just had a
Hagrid moment. In all seriousness, we
created a number of burn piles out of Red Cedar. Tomorrow we will be lighting them and I’d
like to imagine it will look something like the beacons being lit in The Return
of the King. Maybe Rohan will lend us
some horses to get out of that ravine.
This picture is a throwback to my 10/31 entry in Cape Girardeau. The photo of the double headed snake was taken by Sean Kerr.
