Early this morning, I hiked out with every intention of doing a 30+ mile day; I wanted to camp close to the Virginia/West Virginia state line, so I could attempt the four state challenge, tomorrow. Things did not work out quite as planned.
I'd already hiked 15 miles by midday, when Sweet Cheeks sent me a text. Apparently, she wanted to hike with me and asked that I wait for her. I sat at Ashby Gap, conversing with Crank, and giving Sweet Cheeks time to catch up.
No longer wishing to sit on a median and watch traffic, I finally hiked a few more miles to Rod Hallow Shelter and made camp. Sweet Cheeks met me there, and I had a hot dinner already prepared. We enjoyed the meal and a campfire, before retiring for the night.
