6.7 AT737m 20.8m

We hiked out this morning at 6am. In ten miles we got to Dalevile Virginia.

I talked Dan into skipping McD's for Country Cooking. We both ate like Michael Phelps! Steak, and an endless vegetable and desert buffet. Here I am 61years old and my clepto right hand went for everything and my stomach wouldn't say no.

For a while after we left I thought Bushmeat (Dan) was going to change my trail name, Spearchucker to upchucker. I kept it in and after we resupplied we hiked another 10 miles. We ate dinner and I'm still hungry.

So all you old folk out there. You can eat like a teenager if you hike the AT doing a 17.4m per day average and still manage to lose 30lbs in 6 weeks.

We got a flip flopped staying here at the Shelter. Hudson to Harrisburg and Virginia to Springer then...ok I'm lost.

Just had 3 "just got back on the trail after two weeks off and are now nighthiking" ok I can't follow that either.
