View Part 2 of Rural Route.
The last few miles were rough. I nearly twisted my ankle several times as my boot’s heel hit a rock at an odd angle. I was lucky that I didn’t. One also got stuck in the mud once. I thought about leaving it behind, but going barefoot seemed like a worse idea, so I reached down to pull it out. The pants were getting very hot, and I had parts of my body sweating that I didn’t even know could sweat -- of course, I didn’t have these parts a few hours ago, so maybe that was reasonable.
Finally, I could see my grandparent’s old home in the distance. Knowing that they had set up some parts of it to be “off-grid” made me breathe even easier. The first thing I was going to do when I got there was take a shower.
