wind farm blues

Day 34 ~ miles 570 - 592.9

We woke up late after staying up way past our bedtime last night.  Fortunately, it was cool out and the wind had died down overnight.  We hiked away from Tehachapi and the desert landscape and into a glorious pine forest; we thought we were leaving the desert behind.  Oh no, we would experience more desert terrain and many more wind turbines today.  I'm all for renewable energy, but I have tired of hiking around wind turbines so frequently!  We hiked with Midway for much of the uneventful day.  We saw a really beautiful King Snake.  Our camp is by a big grassy meadow, where we're nestled in the trees with a nice canopy above, and a perfect view of the plentiful stars.
