We have finished the 281.4 miles of trail in Maine and are resting in Gorham, New Hampshire at the moment. Maine was beautiful and a blast. I have posted all of my pictures from Maine go to http://www.facebook.com/album.php?id=26517859&aid=2244306&s=20&hash=93a17affea48ed83d6db04338dd63187#!/album.php?id=26517859&aid=2244306&s=0&hash=8c3884768cb05bfe25a4ff094cdf1cec I have learned a few things while being here on the trail. One of them being never eat a 780 calorie whoopie pie for breakfast then go walk 23 miles. This will lead you to a day filled with storms, rain, and running out of water followed by three guys in a two person tent eating McDonalds cheeseburgers. Me plug and dread decided to walk 23 to the road right outside of Gorham in order to wake up and hitch directly into town the next day. We had six miles to go at about 5:00 when the rain began. We were supposed to pass a brook a mile from the road to get water for the night and when I walked out into the parking lot I might have been a little sad and out of water. We did not have water but were going to just ride the night out until the next morning. When we walked out to the road we saw another hiker and he told us he was hitching into town to grab cheeseburgers and then coming back out. We got excited and decided to send Dread to grab us some. Three and a half hours later Dread gets dropped off soaking wet with 8 cheeseburgers haha.
It worked out finally and we slept what little we could then we hitched in early the next morning and went straight to McDonalds. It was a great night and out first in New Hampshire.We are about to hit the White Mountains and get out butts kicked. I am excited about it! Send all mail to North Woodstock, N.H. P.O 03262.
Thank you all for everything!
