Snack time

Day 58 - Waiting for FedEx
...so nothing to do round here but eat.

Nice weather, except for ducks

Day 57 - The 'burbs
90F, dry with a 20mph southerly has been ideal weather for a day of refuelling (though not for the little, lonely feathered creature in the pic). And I've been refuelling considerably with as much food as possible. Speaking of bulking up, I finally found a set of scales for the first time since I set off and I'm down 7kg (1stone) to bang on 14 stone. I must be honest, I'd have thought it would have been down a bit more than that. None-the-less it's the lightest I've been in about 10 years and the 7kg doesn't take account of the fat-to-muscle weight transfer that's bound to have happened. As an aside, my BMI is now a fraction under 25, meaning I'm just below being classified 'overweight', apparently. Does the BMI scale really have a shred of credibility left? Hmm, I think not.
