Some NEWS to share...

Teddy was able to call home several times over the weekend... each time further up the trail than the day before...he is averaging 25 mile days and is leaving Burney, CA as of Tuesday, September 13th.

He has reported he is back on his own now, after hiking for a few days with a NEW thruhiker named "Sticks".  Nothing to crazy to report, other than this guy is "cowboy camping" - what does that mean you ask?? He is thruhiking the PCT without a tent... he has slept on a mat, under the stars, rain or shine...

There is a NEW mail drop, for those who asked... Teddy will be there in about 5 days.  And it's in a NEW state... he will finally have completed the 1,710 miles of California and enter Oregon within the week.

Unfortunately, there are no NEW pictures to share, other than the NEW and improved "I Love You" shot from last week... he decided to resend it, as the last one portrayed him as a jigsaw puzzle instead of a grizzly looking, determined, man on a mission...

 A hiker is walking up to the shelter when he sees another hiker with a rod and reel fishing in the privy. He walks over and asks “what in the world are you doing in there"? He says "I dropped my jacket in and I'm tryin to get it out". 
 The first hiker looks in at the jacket and says "You're not actually gonna wear that are you"? The second hiker shakes his head in disbelief at such a ridicules question and replies "Heck No! There is a Snickers in the pocket"!

Hang in there, Scarecrow - the kids sent you a NEW package of treats to enjoy... and you won't have to fish them out of the privy...  WE LOVE YOU...
