AT 154 - 29th August [168.9]



Terrapin Hostel -Kingsfield. 


So much for sunset or sunrise, clouds came in and stayed till late morning. Climbed my last 4k peak and headed downhill (mostly) to a shuttle at 3pm on long falls dam road to get to Terrapin hostel. Resupply and shower and dinner. All restaurants were closed Tuesday so had to do with a sub and beer. 


Thought for the day 


Habakkuk 3:17-19

Habakkuk Rejoices in the LORD

Though the fig tree should not blossom,

        nor fruit be on the vines,

    the produce of the olive fail

        and the fields yield no food,

    the flock be cut off from the fold

        and there be no herd in the stalls, 

yet I will rejoice in the LORD;

 I will take joy in the God of my salvation. 

 GOD, the Lord, is my strength;

  he makes my feet like the deer’s;

  he makes me tread on my high places.


How did this man still praise when so much reason not to might happen. What about you and me. What if we loose our job or the house is repossessed. What if we fall ill or bereavement comes. 

I’m getting to that point but not fully there yet.
