Day 10 Boiling Springs to Darlington Shelter

Boiling Springs to Darlington Shelter

Miles 14.3
Total 112.3

Shannon: You know, while birds sing and the animals make various rustles-it's really the insects that you hear most consistently in the forest.
Today was lovely. I don't feel quite so tired as before when we did 14 miles.  We had a real slow start this morning. We both decided that five cups of coffee was better than rushing, and you know what?  It was.  Getting ready for bed but supposedly there's a renegage porcupine that steals sneakers.  BRING IT ON!

Jamie:  Someon left a fog horn in this shelter.  So. Tempting.  Today was an easy hike, a lot of flat farm land, very narrow mostly though so the tall grass got a little annoying pretty quick.  With all our new food weight my pack was causing issues again. Enough so that I called the company-maybe some options there.  Moosejaw is a no-go on return. We'll try REI.  Maybe we bought it from there.
