Today was a zero day! Meaning hiking zero miles! It was amazing. I got up late and didn't have to pack up and ate a cooked breakfast by someone else!! French toast and bacon!! It was delicious. It's crazy the things you forget to appreciate. Jaclyn and Lydia had to leave today, so it was nice to be able to have one last meal with them. I really have enjoyed spending time with them. I hope to see them again someday! After they left I started my laundry! It was nice to be able to use a real washer and dryer. They have a couple buckets of clothes that you can wear while ALL your clothes are washing, so I found shorts that kinda fit and a big t-shirt that I could wear without a bra. I should have taken a picture of my horrible outfit I wore ALL day but I didn't. The boys were calling me a hippy but I didn't care. I was comfortable and didn't want to wear my now clean clothes until I showered again. I went down to the lake and tried to get service to send messages and make phone calls but service was terrible. I was able to get through a few times but often I got disconnected. I finished up my laundry and it was time for lunch. I debated eating again but got convinced it was a good idea. I had a burger and my stomach was regretting that decision. Thankfully there were real bathrooms! I took a nap which felt amazing. Today was going great! By the time I got up it was time to try to call Becca to wish her happy birthday!! It took a while to get service again but worked out and we got to talk for about 15 minutes. I also was able to talk to momma for a bit. Headed back up to camp and took another shower. This one didn't cut off on me and was the perfect amount of time! I was able to wash my hair twice and just enjoy the water. I put on my clean clothes and got ready for dinner. I decided on another bottle of wine that I'd share and got some seafood jambalaya! Each of the boys got a tiny glass of wine and I finished off the rest!! Luke and I went down to the lake again because I wanted to see the sunset. We sat there and talked a while. I really enjoy his company and this odd relationship we have going on. It was starting to get dark and he wanted another dinner so we headed back up. He ordered another meal and I got some ice cream! I do not think I will be losing weight on this trip. There was a guy who was hunting with a bow and I was really curious about it and asked him to show/tell me about it. It was super interesting and I wish I could have played and shot it. The fire got started and we went to hang out. The crowd tonight was a little different and I wasn't really feeling it. I enjoyed talking to one girl but was ready for bed. The guy who I gave the note to from Liz came up to me and offered me and beer. I accepted and we talked for a bit then I was really ready. I crawled in Luke's tent with him and it was super warm compared to sleeping alone. It was so nice not to be cold during the night. It's going to be a long day tomorrow.
