From William Ewart's journal:

Yikes....Hiked from this morning's "Ennis - What a Dump Campsite" to
tonight's campsite of  "west of Dunbar - What a Dump Campsite II" !!
Hobos can't be choosy though.

As promised, "yesterday's" Rooster Cafe owner delivered breakfast to our morning campsite at the weed field near Ennis. No charge for the coffee!! Felt bitterly cold when I got out for the coffee at 745am, but by 845am it seemed a lot warmer. Broken clouds on the horizons, windy but warm with the sun.

Finished reading Ivan Denisovich (sp?) while hiking on the road today.
