Vacation Log Day 5 Phase 1 (actual date 8.2.9)

Dunno the time. I could have checked but why bother now. It would involve going i the tent again & disturbing my wife. So for now I am happy sitting by the 1 match fire writing in my log. Fire is going & as it may be one of the last I decided to use some newspaper for ease of lighting. Coffee is going. The recalcitrant stove has been working fine. My guess is there was sand or something blocking something and it finally worked loose. It's Sunday. Vacation is winding down But everything is up in the air. the mechanic is closed today so the car doesn't rule our actions. So we will be hiking & finally seeing nature up close & personal. I am excited.
