March 20: Licklog Gap, NC

120.0 miles.

Happy first day of spring! My pen is frozen, and the ink doesn't want to come out too well, but it was a sunny, pretty day, and we got back on the trail around noon after a supremely fantastic stop in Franklin, NC. We went out with a crew of hikers for breakfast this morning and got our fill of eggs and biscuits and gravy and coffee and oj and bacon and hashbrowns (all for about $5) -it was everything I dreamed it would be.

Tom and I spent lots of time with Thinmint and Ziggy (Hope and Michael) over the last few days. Really cool couple, also from VA. They stayed another night in Franklin to give their feet a break, but I hope we catch back up with them soon.

Fingers frozen now, too. Time for sleep.
