And the Plans Change . . .

It appears that my plans will have to change slightly. The fall caused more damage then I originally thought, my angel has ruptured her Peroneus Tertius tendon and she will be laid up for 9 months recovering. Which means that I make this trip on Mystic. I will not be taking a pack horse and will be travelling lighter and quicker than previously planned. This is not how I envisioned making this journey, but the plans are made and events have been set in motion, so I get ready without my partner and hope that she will make a full recovery and perhaps we will take this trip together next year.
