Day 29 - Zero Day at Hot Springs, NC
0 miles
Slept in this morning till 7:30. Enjoyed some leisurely computer time then went to the main hostel area and watched the slow trickle of thru-hiker friends coming in - Lost Boys, Bloodroot & Red Hawk, Flipper and others.
It was a busy day but I had some fun feeling like a thru-hiker, hanging out a Hiker's Ridge Ministries downtown, doing laundry, walking up and down mainstreet doing errands.
Cooked the strangest lunch of curry mung bean noodles. Baltimore Jack shared with me food he'd prepared just for our family and I felt obliged to add it to the existing fare, so I mixed it all up, like a hiker hash, into one pot. Not sure that was such a good idea.
After lunch we went back into town to do more errands: to the post office, haircuts, and shopping at Bluff Mountain Outfitters.
Said goodbye to James family. Not sure when we'll see them again.
Back at the hostel I did more computer work, ordered stuff online, made arrangements for our next resupply at Roan Mountain, TN.
Cooked a great tofu and veggie supper with only oil, salt and pepper for seasoning. @toesalad organized our food bags.
The kids enjoyed hanging out with their hiking buddies today, Lost Boys et al.
Going to bed a little late tonight, 10:30.
