AT Day 38

2014/5/8 Mile 631

Breakfast at Woods Hole was just as good as dinner. Plenty of coffee, OJ, cinnamon rolls, eggs, grits, and bread with homemade jam and apple butter. Wish I could live there.

Boxed up my long underwear and sleeping bag liner along with some extra food to send home. Days keep getting hotter and lugging around that cold weather stuff wasn't doing me any good.

Decided to go to Pearisburg with Captain Phillips, Lunch, and Forrester. Only a 10 mile day but they are good bunch of guys and I would like to hike with them for a while. If it looks like I'm getting behind I'll have to push on, but for now it shouldn't be a problem.

Hitched a ride into town and got yogurt and fresh oranges at the store before getting a room at the Holiday Lodge. Really crappy place but its close to everything which is a win.

Captain and Lunch did laundry while I messed around on the internet. Then we went to Dairy Queen for smoothies, Mexican food for dinner, and Dairy Queen for Blizzards. Captain Phillips being British didn't know what a Blizzard was so we had to educate him.

Ended the night with Ghostbusters at the hotel. Slept on the floor. After more than a month on my blow up sleeping pad I can sleep anywhere I have enough flat space to fit it.
