Mile 1197 Sierra City to Quincy

Spent a lovely day with Lanai. We passed through Graeagle where we stopped to look round the craft fair. I bought an Indian flute to play on the trail. It sounds just as irritating as a recorder but is lighter in weight.  Drove to Quincy and booked into the Gold Pan Motel then had a mosey round town. Popped into "Hair It Is" but they had no walk in appointments. Also looked for hiking shoes but they didn't have the right size, so we'll both order on line tomorrow. Picked up earphones at Right Aid for my iPhone as I lost my last pair on the trail. Errands! 
Picked up some yummy food at the health food store for a picnic and drove a couple of miles to a great swimming hole. Lanai read from a book she's reading and then we listened to a podcast. There was a wire rope strung across the river which was great for monkey climbing and then dropping in. We had the place to ourselves. It was very hot today but very relaxing. 
We picked up take away Mexican food and then watched a series of great HBO movies. Aaaah.
