Morning update (Jessica)

I stayed in Mojave last night. Thought it would be a good idea to stay
at my own riding start to skip the 5 hr drive this morning. I think it
was the right decision though last night I wasn't so sure looking at
my sketchy motel. I asked the front desk guy if it was safe for me to
walk around by myself and he looked at me like I was crazy. I mean, I
needed to get dinner. He said "Oh madam, you should be back before
dark." hmm, not such an encouraging response. Regardless, it's kind of
a vacation. I actually watched TV for a couple of hrs and slept
through the entire night. 2 things I'm sure wouldn't have happened at
home.

I heard from the crew, sounds like they're waiting for Dario at the
first check point. I am figuring out how to avoid truckers when I go
get brunch. Feeling nice and calm so far, I mean, how hard can it be?
It's not like people train for months for this...ok, I am comfortably
under-trained so it will be an adventure.
