The trail provides. Its been an amazing week off trail, but if feels even better to be back out here tonight. The hike here was easy simple up and down, however, the terrain ahead looks challenging. Bella and I had a wonderful time in Hopewell Jct, Ny with Annie and Linda and all the dogs, birds, and the rabbit. I will miss you guys a ton. Thank you for everything you did for Bella and. I. Annie you are a piece of work. Thank you for all the laughs and for sharing your isms with me. Linda you remind me so much of my own mom " I can't stand It!"
You two were gracious hosts. Thank you for the work and for all the new gear. I'm sure I'll see you guys in the future. Tomorrow is only a 12 mile day. I completely lost my trail legs in the 8 days off trail. We'll start back with 18s- 20s around the beginning of next week. Jimmy and Melissa, thank you guys so much for the amazing mail drop! I can't wait to get it! Seriously its gonna be the best mail drop so far! Thanks!
I bought a solar charger while off trail, look for the reviews in the coming week. Bella is back in her element it seems hopefully my legs will follow suit. Turning in, its past hiker midnight. Pray no rain tonight. Goodnight.

  1. Joshua. My mom is Linda. She told me all about you and your stay with her and Annie. So cool what you are doing! I am so glad how the trail provides for you. Personally, I think it's a God thing :) No matter the reason, I'm glad you had a great experience there. Your story and your goals are so exciting it makes me wish i did something like that when i was younger. Good for you. Will continue to follow your blog. I'm so glad Mom and Annie had this experience with you. They are uber cool and giving people - especially if you have a dog! You should recommend them as an unofficial Hostel. Or HosTILE - :) Snort. just kidding. Hope your adventures continue to get better and better! You should do the Pacific Crest Trail next! Come visit Oregon! We've got work for you! May God continue to bless you on that blessed trail! LUCKY!
