Day 126 - Trumpets and Brownies (4/11/2016)


Not a lot on the journal front today. We decided to do midday brownies to celebrate Flatlander's 100th, so we had a campfire (a rarity among hikers) and ate brownies. It turns out the mix with chocolate chips doesn't work as well because the chips burn and stick to the pot more than usual. Still, it was a nice treat.

We continued on until our campsite, and could hear Sleeping Beauty playing his trumpet from a distance. I like Sleeping Beauty. He's fun to chat with. But he's not a terribly good trumpeter, and only knows about 4 bars from around 3 songs, so the trumpet isn't my favourite thing about him. We found some tent pads far enough away to keep the horn at bay.

Another mostly good day, with some good smiles.

Unfortunately I seem not to have data on my phone much in southern VA, so blog updates are falling behind again.

Start: Jenny Knob Shelter 
End: Campsite near some cascades
Distance: 18.8 Miles 
ETA: 30/11 - 7/12
