Ooooo that smell

If you've been paying attention, we've been camping for five straight nights, and have run completely out of clothing. We packed up our tent, put on some clothing that was reused a few too many times, and headed out on the road to the Bay Area.

I had had hopes of visiting something along the way, but the extra day in Glacier made it so that we had to just go straight there.

On entering Spokane, we stopped at the first rest stop, where I had hopes of getting cleaned up to some degree. I was not very successful, though I hoped that I would at least not be thrown out of an eating establishment until I choked down some food. My "beard" is starting to confirm my worst suspicions, with splotchy growth and color dashing my hopes of being a natural Santa Claus in my old age. However, I am determined to refrain from shaving for the whole trip. Unfortunately, when I put on my sunglasses, I look like a total sleazebag.

We wound up staying in Hermiston, Oregon. I brought the camping hatchet into the room, just in case.
