Today was the day to buy supplies. I decided on canned goods, partly because they’ll keep for a while, but mostly because they don’t have any smell so I can keep them in the car without attracting bears. The final tally (I’m hoping this lasts at least a month):<\/p>\n
\n\n\t\t+ (21) 18 oz. cans Progresso soup
\n\t\t+ (12) 15 oz. cans assorted Chef Boyardee
\n\t\t+ (2) 40 oz. cans assorted Chef Boyardee
\n\t\t+ (16) 6 oz. cans tuna
\n\t\t+ (6) 40 oz. cans Ditty Moore beef stew
\n\t\t+ (8) 15 oz. cans Hormel turkey chili
\n\t\t+ (4) 20 oz. cans chunked pineapple
\n\t\t+ (1) windshield repair kit
\n\t\t+ (1) “spare-tire-in-a-can”®\n\t\t<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\nReal food is going to taste damn<\/u> good after getting back from this trip.<\/p>\n
Drove from Everett to Green Lake Provincial park (350 miles?). Highway one in Canada is highly recommended, as are the backroads of Washington. Highway one was especially nice — it travels through a huge canyon for perhaps seventy miles, and the scenery is like Yosemite but with many more pine trees. Once the canyon ends it’s wide open, rolling hills, followed by a typical northern scene with aspens and beaver ponds. Once I stopped driving I went for a run along Green Lake on a horse trail through the birches and past fields full of flowers and golden grasses. The turnaround point for the run was a huge pasture filled with probably fifty horses — this was far and away the best run I’ve had in ages. Yet another good day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
