We are getting back on trail after an amazing 4 days with our family in Marion, VA. It was an odd feeling spending so much time away from the AT, but we immensely enjoyed being in town and spending time with our mom, aunt, and baby sister. We toured Abingdon, had tastings at a winery, ate well, cleaned up, slept in beds, and lounged around catching up with one another. It was absolutely wonderful.
We did head back to Grayson Highlands so they could hike a bit. However, Britt and I decided to be lazy and wait in the car for them. Hey, we had already done those miles on the AT!
Thanks Mom, Aunt Kristen, and Kiara for taking the time and effort to come visit us. We enjoyed and appreciated it more than you will ever know!
Our next stop is Pearisburg, VA which is about 90 miles away. It should take us about 4-5 days to get there. We are a anxious getting back on the AT as we never know what kind of elements we will be faced with out there. Mom stocked us with some snacks and dehydrated meals so our nutritional intake will be much healthier for the next week.
Being back on the trail, we’ll miss our hiking buddies that went on without us but hope to catch up to some of them. But, we’re sure to meet and hike with some other amazing hikers.
