Day 93 (September 25)

Today marks three months on the AT. What a privilege it has been: so many wonderful American people and places. We slept in a trail shelter last night. Zest, my hiking partner, actually set up his tent inside the shelter in order to stay mouse free. I didn't have any trouble just sleeping on my pad. It rained all night and this morning during our 11 mile hike to Front Royal, VA. We got a hitch from a lady in a Subaru. I'm always impressed by these people who pick us up, even when they have no room in their vehicles. This backseat had my chin on my knees. Crazy. People are wonderful creatures. Take care.
