Ohh boy life is grand soo we have been moving like crazy got a nice crew going and have established a trail name which is silly Radigasta (Radigast the brown from the hobbit tied with rasta lady) been strolling through the woods with Long trail, Ktosummit, Bitter goat, and wal mart..many others too all of which have been nothing short of awesome :) the weather has been wild we climbed blood mountain in a windy snow ice all over which I enjoyed gave some mental challenge. Stayed at neels gap hostel that night, amazing!! A wonderful man pirate was an awesome host got to shower eat snacks and movies in the afternoon washed clothes everyone that works there was really great with tips and tricks. Had a beautiful dinner with an assortment of things. The best was all of us tired walkers all sat down together and just laughed and laughed, sharing stories, watching the most crazy movies, and just plain old being silly. I think every night the past few nights I've laughed more than I have since I was a kid just pure bliss. No matter how cold and wet it's been :) the past few days have been a haul stayed at neels gap then I. The morning hiked 18 long miles to blue mountain shelter (so bitterly horrible cold) then yesterday hiked 16 miles to low gap shelter actually got a little sleep and today hiked 4 miles to dicks gap were we all got shuttled to town and now at the holiday inn ready to take a relax day!! Ohh yeah!!!! Nothing has been more luxurious haha..not kidding :) it's funny your apatite really does go high I have eatin stuff I never really would have everything is amazing!! Oh and we all had the first taste of trail magic two ladies at a gap giving us always hungry hikers coffe tea, hot chocolate, sausage and cheese biscuits, fruit, and on and on. It's was perfect after staying in the long cold night. I can keep on going with everything going on we have finally been getting views too which has been a real booster!! 12 miles to the border already!! Only one problem being the smokey mountians they got 3 feet of snow and zero degree weather not what is good to hike in but it's is going I be sunny the next fees days!!!!!
