Happy Birthday Kathy!
We slept in at the Emma Woods campsite in
Ventura, some of us not waking up until 8:30am.
WOW!!! We thought the 25 mile day would be a "leisure" day, so
many took advantage of a relaxing morning to swim, eat, lay around,
etc. We even had the time to swing in and visit a good friend
at the Patagonia store in Ventura who had helped us out
tremendously with gear donations. With cold mornings and windy
afternoons the gear has certainly proven to be more
than helpful. Thanks Chris Hearst and Patagonia friends!
The "leisurely" 25 miles to Leo Carrillo campground
outside of Malibu turned out to be just a little more challenging
than we expected. With tremendous and excruciating headwinds
blowing us backwards, sideways and some to the ground, we felt
like we survived a tornado. You never know what Mother Nature will
blow at you! That's what makes this trip so exciting though,
as we all celebrated our accomplishments that night with chocolate.
