Broadway’s Bungalow Night 2
Day 104, Tuesday, 6/28 – I slept in this morning, and I needed it. The past few days of hiking took it out of me. Broadway had bought breakfast ingredients for us, and started cooking pancakes, bacon, and scrambled eggs. I was on bacon duty. After breakfast, we essentially turned Broadway’s apartment into an indoor…

Day 101, Saturday, 6/25 – I hiked with Genie, Splitzy, Half Time, Birthday, and Frodo at various times throughout the day. The highlight of the hiking was all the boardwalks.

Stephanie & Mike’s RV Night 1
Day 98, Wednesday, 6/22 – I slept well enough, but I woke up around 4:00am from a series of vivid, disturbing dreams. Sometimes dreams are powerful enough that they stick with me all day, and effect my mood. I was concerned that this would be the case today. I don’t know why I had bad…

Day 97, Tuesday, 6/21 – I woke up, broke down camp, and went into Detzi’s for some hot coffee. Half Time came in a bit after me, and told me he had a lousy night of sleep. He was telling me about all the noise the deer were making next to his tent throughout the…

Day 96, Monday, 6/20 – I woke up cold this morning, we had temperatures in the 40s again. On the plus side, I made it through the night without getting hassled about stealth camping. Birthday, Half Time, and I started to hitch into Palmerton around 5:30am so we could get breakfast and resupply food. There…
