The lovely lauren

Private time here. But the jist of it was I had an amazing weekend, with an amazing woman. And the time also allowed my blistered feet to callus over. 

While my time with Lauren was all too short, it was wonderful to see her, and amazing that she’d take all that time traveling essentially for 30 hours of seeing me. I’m a special and lucky fella to have her coming around. 

After dropping her at the airport, Ben and I took my rental back to Pietown. Fortunately, his flight wasn’t until Monday morning, so he was able to drive the car back to ABQ after dropping me. 

Back at the Toaster House, I saw a few familiar faces, and a few new ones. Had a couple beers and was off to bed early to get back on the trail, well rested, and excited to crush miles.
