AT 145 - 20th August [247]

 

Swim #34

South Arm Road - tenting beside river. 


Shuttle back to East B Road and headed up Wyman mountain. Long easy climb up then down to Sawyer Brook then straight up 1000 feet to Moody mountain then slightly easier down to South Arm road. Looked at river crossing for tomorrow and the steppingstones are covered by the water, wet feet for tomorrow. I had a swim #34. Donnie (Matt’s pastor) joined us to hike with us for a week. He had a car so brought trail magic. Steak and eggs!! Really nice seeing Matt and Bea yesterday but it’s whet my appetite for more. I want to get to Katahdin (finish) and get to M&M house to spend more time with Bea. 



New shoes

    Ah, Steve your so near the end. You've done amazing. We're busy packing today, I've been up and down the stairs to the attic 20 + times and I'm exhausted. Your so fit and today your exactly 20 years older than me. Keep going to the finish line and precious time with Bae. See you soon. Eimear xo
