Eats on the trail

It's record high temperatures here today, and I didn't get my early start as usual. Had to resupply at Wal-Mart, go to the P.O. and do some laundry. Today will most likely be a short day into Cheshire, MA where there is a hostel. Anyway, thought I would let you know what food I've been eating. It seems as though I can never get enough. Every night I wonder how in the world I will be hungry the next day with how much food I eat during the day.

This resupply was nice, and had a great selection of food. My tastes and cravings change, so I'm never really eating the same things over and over. Today I bought food for 3 days. It's a lot of food, but I don't want to go hungry, and sometimes food stretches out longer when I stop for a meal at a road crossing where there is a restaurant.
Flavored Oatmeal with these Fruit Crips (Bananas and Strawberries Freeze Dried to add in), a bag of bagels (Apple Cinnamon), Peter Pan PB (a big jar), 6 clif bars, a box of townhouse flipside crackers, tuna in a pouch, 12 flour tortillas, 2 fiesta sides Spanish Rice, a stick of summer sausage, shell macaroni meal, 4 individual packaged cups of mixed fruit, a baggy of mixed nuts, idahoan mashed potatoes with a real bacon package, some cheese grits with powdered milk, a bag of hershey chocolates, sour patch kids, 20 individual packets of drink mix, starbucks via packets, and a bag of m&ms. So, that's everything for 3 and a half days until my next resupply. My friend Dow, from Philmont, is joining me for the weekend, and he is also bringing some more food. That's about it. Until next time! --Sam the Kid
