I am having a great fucking time. I wish my family enjoyed hiking more. We only did about 2.5 hours before everyone was whining for dinner. I was having a fucking blast. I saw deer tracks and a hole something burrowed into and I dug some clay from a riverbed and saved it in a kleenex baggie and I got a cool ass rock that looks like a guitar pick, and I am having a kick ass time. I feel like I'm 10, I want to run around and poke everything. Being out in nature made me realise how much I miss it and how badly I used to want to be a hermit in the mountains as a kid. I don't want to go back home. My dad promised we could do more hiking tomorrow. I want to leave Keri and Xixe at a pub and just go with dad and jake. They're the outdoorsy ones.

Oh and I saw another needle disposal in the bathroom at the visitor centre.
