this is taking too long

this is taking too long

Well, it was more like 3pm before I got on the river. Moving the tent and tarp to the raft helped out a lot. I went downriver for about three hours. Moving much better today, much more controllable. Even so, this is taking way too long. The next bridge I see, I'm coming ashore. If it is early enough then I'll ride the bike for a few hours, otherwise I'll camp ext to the bridge. No matter what, I'm going to have to hit the internet on the 7th, to upload what I can and to assure my mom that I'm still alive. Again, I'm going to try for an early start tomorrow,... if I get to sleep by 10 tonight, I should be up by 6 and in the river by 8am.
