07-02 we spent 7-01 hanging out at the hotel room I am still on O2. My take a couple of more days. Carrying a bottle to breath with and being attached to a plastic tube gives a person a much different perspective on the world.

07-02 we caught the train to back to Silverton where we left the truck parked at the train station. Carried 2 bottles of Oxygen to keep from passing out. I did take it off once, you know just to test, and yes you will pass out.
