Heading out tomorrow

[coheterojo]

Noboat, sorry you're off the trail. I really enjoyed hiking with you. I just arrived in Damascus, VA today around 10:30 am. I'm planning a zero day tomorrow. Today is day 31 and I've already got 460 miles or so under my ever-tightening belt. Only 1700 and change more to go. Piece of cake!

See you down the trail,

Is there really 6 million and 2 steps?

[coheterojo]

No. It only seems that way. I think there are 604 steps but the view of the falls made it more than worth the climb.

Now in Rural Retreat, VA passing under I-81. Just spent the night at the swank Relax Inn. I'll be in Pearisburg in about 4 days.

Just got in to the Hojo Express at the I-81 interchange in Daleville, VA. Most fantastic day on the trail yesterday scaling the Dragon's Tooth, eating the most amazing meal at the Homeplace Restaurant in Catawba and then climbing to McAfee Knob to watch the sun set. Kinda hard to beat.

Just came in to Kent, Connecticut to run some errands. Too darn expensive to stay in this town but it is very nice all the same. Nine states down and only five more to go! 1456.7 miles walked with only another 722.4 to go what could possibly go wrong?

Arrived here in Dalton, Mass yesterday afternoon. Going to spend a day with my cousin Doug and his wife driving around hopefully drinking large quantities of chocolate malteds. Mass. is my home state but I haven't lived here for 43 years. It was kinda cool to walk back to it from GA.

Noboat it's good to hear from you. At least you'll be in the same geographical region as us in August! Take care.

See ya down the trail,
