Day 65 - 75 Miles to Buckhorn

Tuesday, July 29 - 75 miles to Buckhorn, 3,784 total miles. Moderately hilly with a couple of significant climbs. No rain today, it's a nice country and nice people. Saw 1 deer. Got off course and took a right instead of a left; climbed 2 miles at a 6% incline. I said to myself, "I don't think this is right." Consulted with a local person for about 10 minutes about the route and decided to continue on and get back on course up ahead rather than backtrack. Had a hamburger for lunch. I set up my tent in the primitive section of the campground. Dinner was salmon cakes, country fried potatoes, pinto beans, cornbread, tomatoes, and a huge side salad. Tonite's a laundry night, too.
