1434.9 to 1456.6 (732.5 Remain)

Hiked our two biggest days this week. On Wednesday, we did 22.8 miles. Today, we hit 21.7. Wind had died and it warmed up enough to go back to t-shirt hiking. Yesterday we did so many wardrobe changes I lost count. First you have the raincoat on over the down jacket then you bake. Off comes the layers, you stop for a break and freeze. Good to have a consistent day today.

We'll be walking through a couple trail towns in the morning and we're excited to see if we have mail. Mail=special packages from home bound trail angels. Did some research today and found that 9 out of the top 10 highest peaks on the AT are yet to come. Mainly along the North Carolina/Tennessee border in the Smokies. Could get chilly!
