I traveled about 16 miles today.
Good evening from atop the levee somewhere out on the drained land of Florida. This was the first night of our trip where we could just stop walking whenever we wanted and set up camp. Didn't need to reach a park, campground, island, or any designated spot. So, we found a wide spot right at the only bend on the levee for 40 miles and called it good. Tomorrow we will walk a line straight north all day. We're low on food and bad weather is coming Thursday night (supposedly) so we'll see how things shake out. Our friend, Bennett, stayed behind while Joey moved on ahead so it's just the two of us now. A great day to be out walking and we saw a few alligators, many birds, a raccoon, and a turtle. Oh, and a few herd of cows. It has been really chilling off at night and my fingers are getting cold entering this, but not cold enough to kill off the mosquitos that still swarm at dusk.
