2014/5/24 Mile 961.8
A short day of hiking but still managed to see 4 bears. 3 of them at once: a mother and two cubs.
Got to the Terrapin Station Hostel around 1100. Its basically a converted basement in a residential home that has a bunkroom, mini-kitchen, bathroom, and common area. The cool part is that it is less than half a mile from the trail right as it leaves Shenandoah National Park.
Took a shower and got some catch up blog posts written before others started showing up. People trickled in all afternoon.
Spiderman, Big Tex, Rugby, and I went into town for a grocery run and then dinner at Lucky Star (a British/American pub). Rugby and Spiderman went to see a movie while Big Tex and I hung out and talked.
Back at the hostel we organized our slack packing for the next two days. The plan is to do 23 miles tomorrow back to the hostel and then the change on up to Bears Den Hostel the day after. Yep, I'm definitely spoiling myself but having access to additional food is a huge incentive.
