My air-conditioning festival melts away when I refill my water supply at Kelso Depot and begin the ride back to camp

Staff at Kelso Depot always lets me refill my water from the basement utility closet since there's no public water tap outside. I was going to use the new garden hose outside instead, but apparently somebody broke it last night after I used it.

Strange... it worked just fine when I used it.

One of the rangers at the Kelso Depot front desk asks me if actually rode my bike on Cornfield Spring Road. I laugh and tell her that I have to hike the bike more often than not.
