Pinoy Airman
survived the Great Smokeys. The weather was not nice today--it was
raining all morning. The backpack was wet but the clothes were all dry
because of Ziplocs and trash bag inside the pack. Standing Bear Farm
provided re-supply items and opportunity to wash clothes. The Hostel
would have been perfect with its old items but there was no cell phone and Wi-Fi
signal. However, its uniqueness made up for what it was lacking in
sophistication. Pinoy Airman was grateful.
Pinoy, I like your blog and photos. Hope you are recovering. I too have left the trail. I am glad I got to know you some and enjoyed those days hiking with you and hanging out in Gatlinburg. Best wishes, Gary, Shabby
ReplyDeleteThanks Shabby! Have you seen your pics and Loren on Zero Day (5 May); it is between Day 45 and Day 47. Anyhow, Liza and I will be back in the trail after 4th of Jul; we hope we can put more than a hundred mile before school starts.
