We got on the trail at 7am and hiked a quick 10 miles to Parisburg, Virginia. The Angels Landing shuttle pulled over and asked if we wanted a ride into town. He was ready to drop us off where we requested till I asked him where his Hostel was. It was right across the street from the Plaza Hotel where we intended on staying for 60 and his place was 43 including laundry.
We unpacked our stuff in the new bunkhouse with only the 2 of us in there.
We went to the main house. Did our laundry and took our showers and left for a day on the town. Dan's first stop was Pappas Pizza where we shared an 18" sausage, spinach and green pepper pizza. It contained fresh high quality ingredients and Dan and I devoured it. Dan also devoured a foot long chicken sub and then asked me where we were going for dinner.
When I saw that crazed look in his eye when he asked that I said any where you want. The poor guy weighed in at 165 (down 16lbs) today. I had weighed in at 200 (down 30lbs) today.
We then went to the pharmacy to get bandaids for his foot where his big toenail finally fell off today. The damage was done probably the first week on the trail by his boots that we replaced after the second week.
Then off to the Food Lion where we purchased 151 dollars in groceries.
Tonight for dinner I'm having a fresh pint of blueberries and a pint of raspberries and a pint of cherry Garcia ice cream.
Dans off to the health clinic to get a TB test needed before he can get into med school. then to the library computer to see what else he needs to do for med school.
