Prepping bounce boxes
The numbers seem logical
Wait till you see it..
How do you prepare food boxes for places without resupply opportunities, for three intrepid trampers, weeks ahead of time, having not much idea of how long the walking will take, what the weather will be like, how much energy we’ll need, what condition we’ll be in, how long the boxes will take to get there, how much weight each will be able to and will have to carry???
Gratitude
for the statistician
who looks for the numbers
skips the details
and gets to work:
4 (boxes) x 3 (people),
1 week there will be 4,
altogether 124 days, calculated,
of breakfast, lunch and dinner
not to forget energy-dense snacks
for inbetween,
and drinks,
for refuelling
rehydrating
refreshing
replenishing
and warming
the body, mind and soul
you go
figure
what THAT looks like
in a shopping trolley
Go well Marlies. I’m loving your poetry so far and looking forward to more on the way.
Much Love, Go well. Pauline xxx
