Out and About

In at Pie Town, NM! Roughly 320 miles into the big walk.

Unfortunately, due to lack of true computer access I am posting from my phone and don't feel I can compose anything worth a damn in this manner.  

Therefor, I'll just go ahead and throw out as many details in as few words as possible.  

I appologize in advance.
