| Trooper, M-80 & Owl getting TM |
Had a great day of hiking today under nice clear blue skies. The ridge line has turned out to be some
very nice well maintained trail. I wish it all was this nice. I can see now why previous hikes all claim the miles get easier after Roan Mt. I spent the night with a bunch of people I had not seen in a while. We all have pretty much the same plan or the next few days and together we pushed out to Abingdon Gap. We had some nice trail magic from a local church in the form of cold
sodas just before we passed through a cow pasture. Luckily the cows
just wanted to keep eating. At Abingdon I met Steps. Steps is from the UK and we had fun teasing him about all things British. Turns out is is both Owl and Steps birthday as well as M-80 and Troopers wedding anniversary is tomorrow. Trooper has been Yogi'ing toilet paper the whole trail and we all decided to give them a few sheets as an anniversary gift. Pretty much as good as it gets on trail for gifts.
