Miles 20.2
Total 278.2
Twenty miles today was a lot. I was really dragging for the last 4 miles. I had to take 2 beraks during that time. thankfully another hiker, Bi-ped, caught up with us and chatted with us which really helped pass the time. Today was unrelenting rocks. It was exhausting. My feet are dead. It was, literally, a river of rocks. If you could see through the vegetation it would look like the "sea of rocks" the book warns us about.
What a challengin day. When we finally got into Delaware Water Gap we headed to the Church of the Mountain Thru-hiker hostel, blessedly right next to the trail. Itw as so godo to arrive. This place it like a real little hostel: a main room with couches and chairs and tables, and a back room with bunks. They have electricty and hot showers. Heavenly. (and free).
There's lots of us here tonight though. I think 3 or four people will hav eto sleep in the common room.
*yawn* It's almost hiker midnight- 8:45 so I'm off to get ready for bed.
