so far

Many experiences even 6 days into my trip. I was walking around high river one night hen I found a cart that pulls behind a bike and since my bags are way to heavy to carry I loaded everything into this cart and started to walk west. I have made it to black Diamond so far and hope to be in Canmore by the end of the week. Long hot days walking down highways and random nights by little rivers have been the bulk of my experiences so far. It is hard...very hard. I don't know anybody even though there are many people around and I am quite lonely. Not knowing anything like where I can eat and sleep is quite demoralizing but I fel like I am gaining something of some potential worth from all this. Highlights have been a sip of a bottle of port that Brody bought me every night before I go to bed, meting this couple in high river- a guy who has hi english degree and one of the best bookshelves I have ever seen, and random coffee shops every now and then.- Nat
