We made very good distance today. I can clearly see tents and people around them from where we are now.
I also can see a corral off to one side. The bedoins I have been dealing with did a very good job at what I asked them to do. The corral is full of camels and pack animals. I will be able to re-cross the desert of NML and lead another caravan to this side. The animals in this caravan can rest in the corral here till I return with the next group.
I found a clear area and pitched camp for the night. One of the camels kicked me in the chest today. I'm in pain right now, so will wrap my ribs and rest for tonight. I'm not sure what set him off to kick me, but that is the hazards of working with them I guess. Tomorrow is another day.
I put on a large pot and will make another stew for tonight. We have plenty of meat and roots. I found some grains I can use to thicken it. I think I will make a Date Pudding for tonight also. The deer and Gnu should love that.
It will probably be an early night so I can recover enough to continue tomorrow. I can see the goats nearing the lower part of the mountain.
One step, and then another, will get you to where you want to go.
Hugs and love to all.
Larry the Caravan Master
