Day 106 (October 8)

It was another monsoon night in Virginia, but sunny today. We did 23 miles yesterday, but a meager 14 today. Then it was into a motel to catch our breath. Staying in Dalesville, VA. The AT is right out our motel door. Quite convenient. We need to do 21 miles tomorrow in order to reach the destination where a hostel shuttle driver will pick us up. Virginia is such a pretty state, but it holds a lot of ups and downs. Gets us ready for the final push up the significant mountains of Tennessee and N. Carolina. The Appalachians are certainly diverse -- a treasure!
