Planning- 100 days until the PCT

Well, here I sit on my sister's couch, trying with all my might to not let the excitement of an upcoming thru-hike get the better of me. I have not yet gotten a new backpack for this trip, though I am looking at the Mountain Laurel Designs' Exodus or the Osprey Aura 35. The question is: Frame or no frame?
Also, I just ordered a food dehydrator so I can start making/dehydrating my meals. I've heard from past PCT thru-hikers that food resupplies/availability is mostly gas stations and places in the middle of nowhere that feel they have the right to charge exorbitant prices for a candy bar. Also- I would like to eat more fruit and veggies than I did on my AT thru-hike.
That's all for now, don't forget to enjoy yourself!
