I love town days 

Woke up super early to get to town, left camp before everybody else cause I was so excited.

Crushed the first 6 miles really fast and made it to the road.

Was planning on getting a shuttle to town, but I was lucky enough to run into Miss Janet, trail angel legend and she gave me a ride into town. 

I was in town before everybody else so I started my errands. 

Dropped my pack off at the outfitters and started charging my battery pack. Then I went to a shoe repair shop to fix the bottom of my shoes.

300+ miles seems to be taking its toll on these Altras. Got them glued up and stabilized so they can't last me a couple more weeks. Lot cheaper than an new pair.

Grabbed a smoothie and they also gave me a Snickers and sticker since I was a hiker. 

Waited for everybody else, did some grocery shopping then went out to eat. (Forgot to take some pictures of dinner, I got a salad)

Grabbed a shuttle out of town and hiked a mile to our stealth spot for the night 

Back to the woods for the night, and the next two. 

Until next time town day, always a pleasure

Stay classy

Travel day Drive down to the airport with Mom, Dad and Shannon, jealous that they were getting donuts and hanging with Miguel after.  Plane got delayed for some reason beyond my comprehension, gave me plenty of time to charge my devices and watch one of the best movies of all time  Sat across the aisle from a really cute baby, not as cute as Miguel obviously Had myself a Pepsi (JetBlue doesn't do coke apparently ...) And bacardi, and slept as well as the baby next to me.  Amanda from the Grateful hiker picked me up where she drove me and a Canadian to the start of the AT. We listened to a quick 10 minute leave no trace talk, officially registered and learned how to properly throw our bear bag.  Spent the rest of the night chatting around the campfire with "Karma" somebody who has hiked  the AT 4 times before. Got some great advice, are some ramen, brushed my teeth and settled in for the night.  Cheers to the r...

Probably the best day on trail Woke up at 3:30 this morning to catch the sunrise on McAfee Knob and it did not disappoint, definitely my favorite view and sunrise of the trail Had some more miles to get into town, had a killer pulled pork salad. Last resupply on trail. Ran into some day hikers, one of them had a son who hiked the trail so she gave me an oatmeal cookie, didn't remember to take a picture till the last bite.  To top it all off, when we left town, we also hit 1/3rd of the way to Katahdin,  Had no idea that I would be able to make it this far, but definitely surprised and happy that I did Until tomorrow 🤙  See ya lovelies
