So we don't have much to update. We've only had rare updates and/or phone calls from the trail in the past 2 weeks. Tom has been making more daily miles and as of today he is at 542 miles and camping at the Davis Path campsite north of the Va 683/U.S. 11/I-81 area of Atkins and Marion Va. That's about all the details I could get out him when he called home this morning while waiting to place his order at the diner where he was with a couple of other hikers, Scout and her husband, Nick. I suppose his hunger pangs were more important than Mom's million questions!! We've also been having reception problems as well.
This is Partnership Shelter on the trail north of Troutdale. Tom arrived here on Saturday, June 4 and then he took a zero day here on Sunday where he received a massage for his aching leg. By the end of the week Tom should be hitting the 600 mile mark! Hike on Tom!
