After my post about the weather guys on our side, they turned on is a little. 2 nights in a row with some hard rain. But we were fortunate to stay dry. The morning is always fun, packing up a wet tent in a little mud.
After hiking 15.3 yeaterday, we pulled a 12.2 mile day today (grandpa bob - yes, we did 3.4 into hiawasse, thanks for keepin track!) We basically hiked in a cloud most of the day. Made for a cool, comfortable hike, but we had no views at the summits. It was super surreal walking through some parts as well. Overhanging, twisted trees surrounded with mist. Felt like a dream sequence almost. I'll try and post a picture I took when we get to town.
We also hit the 100 mile mark today! Pretty psyched all around. We are a little sore but we are getting to the town of Franklin tomorrow where we can let our tired bodies get some rest.
Onward and upward!
