Davis Bayou Campground, #5, CRS: 6
After several prolonged days with shortened periods of sleep, today, I sleep in until after sunrise, not by decision but by necessity. Arising, I go to the bathhouse and wash my face, then return to the jammer to boil water for coffee and prepare my Daystart.
Then, I climb into the co-pilot seat to eat while pounding keys on the keyboard. At eight am, I drive to the visitors center to purchase a patch and get a stamped map.
