Back to the trail. Tim dropped us off at the visitor centre where he found us, and off we went. I'd planned a big 21-22 mile day. It rained. I walked in the rain. It stopped. I walked. It got dark. I night-hiked. It got foggy, I hiked in the dark fog.
In the end the fog won out. It was just too hard to follow the trail with my headlamp reflecting back at me, so I found a stealth site and camped. I'm not sure where I am, but I think it's sort of close to my goal.
The others all had a big day planned too, but wet socks convinced them to cut the day short. I really like the Florida guys, but this is one of the reasons I get annoyed when we leap frog each other: since they aren't moving real quick overall, every time I run into them it's because I've had a slow few days. I like hanging out with them, but I kind of hope I stay ahead from now on - otherwise I'll probably run out of time to finish. Or at least I hope it's because they caught up to me, rather than me slowing down.
