Day 757:
What I thought was a lot of sand was… well… not a lot of sand. There was a thin layer of sand covering a whole lot of gravel and I know because I dug up all that gravel until I hit the bottom of the river bed.
All in all, a disappointment.
I’m still heading east to see if I can find more sand. I’m not super optimistic since the thing directly in front of me is a large mountain, and behind it I can see the peaks of an even larger mountain. Covered with snow even! Thank goodness I have wool mittens now.
So I’m cold, wet, exhausted, and without the sand I need. Not a good day.
