Hawk, Jay, Cheap Shot and Crazy Talk, section/day hikers from the VA/DC area. Nice people! Thanks so much for entertaining us and I’m glad you enjoy your new trail name Cheap Shot! It’s always nice to see people who aren’t thru-hikers to get a different perspective on things.

I half expected to see Alexander Supertramp hanging out. This was in a cow pasture just north on the AT from the Trimpi shelter.

Well, I managed to find a computer and didn’t expect it. There’s an Exxon gas station where we are at with two computers! Sweet! It’s a rainy, kinda cold afternoon and we made it 4.5 miles from the last shelter into ‘town’—aka: a highway, two gas stations, a restaurant and a motel. Surprisingly the gas stations have a good resupply; I think they are used to hikers! We aren’t the only ones staying in ‘town’ for the day, several others are ‘neroing’ it as well. Since leaving Damascus we thought we were going to battling nasty thunderstorms and they ended up holding off until late Saturday night and then some…

This was an awesome walk right out of Kincora. I wished the whole day was like this. Pulling up a campsite and having Chris fish while I read would have been perfect.

Not sure why no one has put up a sign yet. This serves as the border into Virginia!

My friend Amy and I at Kincora….nice to meet people along the way. We’ve ‘known’ each other for like 10 years online!

yes, I am a big nerd. 😉 That’s 400 miles at a stream.
