Some clouds this morning kept the sun from getting too hot, so I managed to sleep in a bit. I didn't sleep well last night; I tossed and turned a lot.

After tea and breakfast, I prepare my saddlebags and backpack, stop at the tap to fill my water (six litres), and off I go.

Breakfast was granola, tamari almonds, tart black prunes, a couple of dried pears and a handful of pine nuts (not harvested here at the Preserve).
