[at-l] eating in the South

[Pat Villeneuve <patv@falcon.cc.ukans.edu>]

If you stick close to the trail, most of your "town stops" along the 
southern quarter will be rather alternative...not really in towns at 
all. I realized this before I hit the trail and knew I didn't want to 
count on hitching or shuttling to get what I needed. I included "town 
food" (dinner and breakfast) in my maildrop. I sent things I wouldn't 
normally get to eat on the trail, such as a can of clam chowder, so I 
wouldn't get too bored. If I got a chance for something better, my other 
food went into the hiker box. (Wesser/NOC and Hot Springs are glowing 
exceptions.)
