My mood each day is solid through morning, midday, and such. I have noticed that setbacks affect me most if they happen in the evening. Dusk gets lonely.
Often, if I haven't found a good campsite by evening time, I start to feel a twinge of sky sickness. Its a feeling of being too exposed; too far from cover. This abates if I find a good spot, somewhere hidden and protected from any chill breeze that might come in off of the prairie.
Its been prairie country now for a few days. Since I entered Idaho, nearly. I enjoyed the sage deserts with their pine trees, but I'm happy to leave the treeless "scab lands" behind. I didn't realize how much I missed the pines until I could smell them again near Winchester.
I found a good place tonight. I think I'll sleep well.
