Day 9 (July 3rd)

Yesterday ended in rain with me running out of water, but the guy I shared a shelter with was the biggest challenge. He was a chain smoker and, as I mentioned, smoked a joint about every 6th cigarette, pacing all the time and covering every topic imaginable. Never slept. Smokers hack all night, and he paced with a head lamp on. Thankfully morning came, and I took off. Staying at the top of Killington peak, Vermont tonight in the tent. No more shelters if I can help it. The mice got into my trail mix, too. It was a difficult 3 miles uphill today, but I made 10 miles. Tomorrow is the 4th! I'm going to find a cold beer and celebrate this great land!

    Hi Bahn! Happy 4th! Jim and I think of you every day and especially during the past few days of thunderstorms! Hope you continue to avoid close encounters with lightening, engorged creeks and stoned psychos! We are so proud of you and your amazing trek! Walk on... stay safe!
