July 24

Today was a nice cool day for a hike. We were able to get 17 miles in and still have time to break at the Cookie Ladies house. She sells fresh hard boiled eggs, pop, and hands out baskets full of home made cookies. Mark ate three eggs and said they were the best he ever had he wanted more but didnt want to ask They also have blueberry picking on their property. We met many new hikers today all at her house.

Not much news today we are near the Kay Wood shelter. 623.1 miles to go!
