20.4 miles, 1730.7 total.
rained and rained all night, and was still raining in the morning. the trail was very wet and muddy again, but it went over some new terrain. I went through forests, over hilltops, and through farmland. I even passed the Vermont "Inn" that they say inspired The Newhart Show. it was all very nice. there was even a wooden lawn chair on top of one of the bigger hills. so I sat and took a nice little wet break. in the afternoon the trail went through a small town, West Hartford, and I stopped at the local deli to have a sandwich and buy some special snacks for tonight. bought an orange soda, some apples, and pringles. got here around 5:30. still drizzling and my stuff is all wet again.
here with 2 section hikers from last night, Tonto (retiree) and High Octane (Alaska school teacher).
later,
