5/17 Split and Reformation. Health and Hurt.

We are in Idyllwild. I have Achilles tendonitis. Zm is completely healthy. The weather is foul, but we are warm, safe, and in good company.

The last chunk of trail was excellent, even though my Achilles was always present. It hasn't been painful, just persistent. I would like to avoid things getting worse and am immobile for the time being.

We have been hiking with Racheopod, who is in love with a farmer in France. She is a trail veteran, having completed the AT and the Florida Trail. Attached to her pack is one Grizzly Jones, a 8oz stuffed bear of great import.

The weather has been cold and windy since Warner Springs. At times we were joined by two separate hikers from Iowa. Sticks carries two found sticks of wood as hiking poles. Joshua has an 8 lb base weight and a silver umbrella. Zm and Racheopod bestowed the name Silvertree upon him. Perhaps it will stick.
