2/20 rest in Orlando

We are in the greater Orlando area staying at a friend's house and taking our first zero after 19 days of continuous walking. Zm has developed shin splints and we will rest for two to three days while our friends will continue forward tomorrow. The injury is most likely the result of expired footwear coupled with the lack of zeros. We are fixing both issues here.

Since I last wrote we have moved from extremely flat terrain to slightly less flat. A few days ago I was surprised to be climbing a noticeable grade taking place over a long distance. Yesterday we were climbing noticeable bluffs following a river. And watercourses are now flowing with perceivable volume. The water looks cleaner and sandy bottoms are starting to show.
