Montague to Black Bear Ranch, CA
Tuesday May 26, 2009
6:36am I woke up around six with six hours of sleep. I might leave today. I've got bus tickets.
10:05am I had another relaxing morning here at Marilyn's house. I'm just hanging out my special friend, Marilyn Trevino. Yesterday I did a lot of yardwork at her house. I mowed the backyard. We did a lot of work together. We've got the free lunch at twelve in two hours. I am doing a final pack right now.
Marilyn smoking my special cigarette
Marijuana, weed, back porch, living room, inside, back door, where I typed, Marilyn's bed
12:28pm I came to this trailer park with Marilyn so she can get some cigarettes from her friend. We've been using my quartz glass one-hitter, which I only use for tobacco, to smoke with because we can't find any more rolling papers. We came to her friend's trailer here and they're smoking us out. Cascade Sun Trailer Park. We're having a party out here. Chilling with the Native Americans. They told me I should check out Cougar Hot Springs in Oregon by Sisters and Springfield.

12:54pm We just came to St. Mark's and got sack lunches.
1:25pm I should make an update. I took lots of pictures around Marilyn's house and stuff. I should probably tell Marilyn that.
1:32pm We are in Yreka still. The bus comes later on.
1:38pm I hugged a great farewell with Marilyn...but, I left my walking stick in her car! That sucks! I hope she realizes it and comes back. I left it in the back seat. I hope she comes back before my bus leaves.
I am going to summon her back with my powers. Marilyn, come on. Turn around and see my walking stick in the back seat. Walking stick, walking stick. I'm a long distance walker. I need a walking stick.
1:55pm Sweet! There's Marilyn! She came back. My powers of manifestation astound me! She pulled up and gave me my walking stick. Then, surprisingly she told me, "Can I get a kiss?" I gave her a smooch on her lips. This whole time I've spent with her I haven't been able to snuggle or nothing with her. I mean, I gave her massages, like full-body ones and I rub her almost everywhere. She returned the favor a couple times. The first time I gave her a massage I sat on her butt and told her to take her shirt off so I could rub her back. She did, but she wouldn't turn around so I could massage her front and stomach and stuff. That's so awesome that she gave me a kiss. She's 56, by the way. She's really ageless though. It's so awesome how she came back with my stick.
2:05pm I am leaving on the Stage bus. Leaving for Etna.
3:13pm I just got dropped off in Etna at Ray's Food Place. I'm going to walk around and ask people how to get to Black Bear Ranch.
3:15pm I just got dropped in Etna at the grocery store and Cheryl is being nice enough to give me a cigarette. I appreciate it, sister. Everybody gets credit, thanks.
Cheryl was a superb listener and she even gave me another cigarette.
3:50pm I forgot to tell you. I came to the library right across the street and Tina let me get a printout for free. I appreciate it, Tina. Everybody gets credit. Tina: "Courtesy of the World Bank." I was almost out of havethisbook.coms.
4:10pm I had a great presentation with Cheryl in front of Ray's. She listened to my entire Odyssey and everything. She was shaking her hear up and down the whole time. She's a believer.
4:50pm Passing sign that says I am only 5 miles from Somes Bar. I'll walk there today.
5:16pm Let me tell you about how much I love Marilyn. She's beautiful. When I left she told me she had learned a lot from me. She was really happy with me and said I was a pleasure having around. Thank you for letting me tap your resources, Marilyn and enabling me to work my magic and get my job done.
I didn't tell you I stopped for a smokebreak in the shade. I am five miles away from Somes Bar. Oh yeah, and I have no food. All I've had to eat today was a dinky sandwich from that sack lunch. Also a 160 calorie bag of Doritos. Hopefully there will be some food up ahead.
5:31pm Passing Waymayer. I am walking Main Street still.
5:38pm WARNING SNOW PLOWS OPERATE DAYLIGHT HOURS ONLY, IT IS UNLAWFUL TO SKI, TOBOGGAN OR SLEIGH ON ANY COUNTY ROAD. SISKIYOU COUNTY ORD 341

6:03pm About five minutes ago I stopped for a break.
6:15pm Done smoking and walking.
6:22pm In no-time, I was walking to Somes Bar. Isn't that only five miles? What? It's sixty or seventy miles away?! I could've sworn the distance marker said it was only five miles.
View, view
7:12pm I just got a ride into Sawyer's Bar.
7:25pm That dude was 58 years old. He's a census taker. I didn't get his name. I am going to go thumb it on Eddie Gulch Road. Luckily, he gave me a couple apples and some Triscuits.
Let it be known

7:44pm Earlier I was walking these one lane mountain roads and it seemed peculiar that I was five miles away from a town. I had even taken a picture of the distance marker. I also kind of figured that on the distance markers the locations were listed in descending order. Therefore, I am very fortunate that guy picked me up. There's not any civilization for miles. I took a long smokebreak here at the bridge and I'm going to keep walking closer to Cecilville.
8:30pm Maggie just pulled over for me and she's going to take me all the way to Black Bear! She brought me over to her dad's house. She's going to go talk to her husband and then she'll come back. Her dad is smoking a joint with me! I appreciate it, brother.
9:05pm We finally got confirmation that the road we are on leads to Black Bear Ranch. We were wondering. See, there's three people I am wondering about. I am wondering about Carol, Aaron and Hank and I am wondering about Travis. I wonder if any of them are still there.
9:07pm I just got dropped off at Black Bear Ranch, in front of the cabin that Carol used to occupy. Let me make sure I have everything. I hope it's not rude of me to just show up unannounced. I wonder what they're going to tell me.
That's so sweet how I just delivered to Black Bear Ranch.
I am glad I came back because I wasn't very descriptive last time I was here, because I was with Carol back then and had cut back on my loggings. She was slowing my mission down back then. I have a digital camera this time. Last time I had disposable ones, I think.
9:15pm This goat with horns just came up to me and he's not letting me pass.
10:00pm Earlier I got welcomed back to Black Bear Ranch. I had heard someone playing piano and I yelled from outside. Some people came out and remembered me and invited me in. Dorian, whom I remembered from last time asked me if I wanted to come inside and eat some food. I came upstairs where I used to stay with Carol. I'll take pictures in the morning.
