Day 75-night hiking again

Even when the opportunity exists for my body to sleep in, I still wake up between 5 and 6. It's hiker time. Since I was up at 6 and it was a chilly morning I decided to go for a dip in the hot-spring fed pool at drakesbad. It was a great idea until I had to get out. At that point I froze. At 730 they had a great breakfast for us: chorizo breakfast burrito and an all you could eat in an hour breakfast buffet of cereal fruit oatmeal toast and bagels. Of course we ate the whole time. At that point it was time to leave. We closed our tab which was very cheap for two meal and walked on. The nice thing about the walk was that it was extremely flat. No big hills or surprises and we could really get some decent miles in quick. With a view if Shasta most of the hike I got in 25 miles by 5, after starting at 9! It was an average hike as far as scenery goes. Most of it was in pine forests, but we would get an occasional glimpse of the surrounding from a small ridge along the way. When I arrived at old station I went directly to the store and got some good snack food for the next couple days, 3 tacos, and a drink. Surely after only 3 tacos I needed 3 more. While us hikers were sitting around eating the topic of all the recent trail magic came up and how there were so many possible shower options. We decided that it was almost too much and that 2 showers in a row is nice, but 3 in 4 days was almost conforming to society. Then pine, top shelf, lovebird, raven, and myself decided we should at least make it 4 more miles to the last water before the 40 mile waterless stretch (longest on the whole trail). So we walked 4 more miles to the subway trailhead. At this point I felt so good I decided to night hike a few miles of the waterless stretch. So I got in about 5 more. No one else wanted to go with me. It brought my total to 34 miles today. Hopefully tomorrow I can make it to burney falls state park and inch a little closer to Oregon.
