For safety reasons, my non-hiking older sister keeps track of our comings and goings on hikes. We always let her know where we're hiking and check in when we're back. Today, we had intended and actually started to hike the Herman Creek Trail to Indian Point in the Columbia River gorge, but a mishap took place that ended the trek. Thinking we'd have a bit of fun with my sister, I called and said that Al's water had broken, we had to abort the hike and were on the way to REI to replace his bladder. There was, seemingly, a stunned silence on the other end of the telephone, whereupon I started to explain what a bladder was. She interrupted with "I know, I read that on your blog". To hear that someone actually had read our blog on clothing and equipment was most heartening.
More later on the shopping trip and losing some additional equipment weight.
