Up a little bit early to pack everything up and head over to the diner for breakfast again. There were some people all dressed up in there western best for the Memorial Day dancing party at the VFW. One of the old guys stared at the side of my head until he finally loudly told me we could go dancing all day! I nicely thanked him for the info but said we were headed out of town.
We were planning to catch the bus to the trailhead so we had some time to kill after we ate. Luckily there was a nice shaded park across the street so we hung out at a picnic table and I tried to catch up on the blog. Soon a few hikers we know started trickling over to chat so less and less blog work was getting done.
Soon enough it was time to catch the bus and we were off on our way back to trail. The bus in Tehachapi was very convenient and easy to use. We got on trail in the late afternoon so it was pretty hot out but we made fairly quick work of the miles.
On the way to camp we started seeing large prints in the sand…it’s a bear! The prints were headed the opposite direction of our camp so we weren’t too concerned. This section had lots of comments about bear sightings so were on alert.
Once at camp we made dinner and relaxed a little. We were treated to a fantastic sunset and then turned in for the night.
