Woke up late and enjoyed a muffin top (literally, just the top of a muffin) and re-hydrated granola, blueberries and milk. It was delicious! Thanks Jay and John.
We walked near farm fields today, and boy! was it windy! We could tell that a weather system was moving in.
Lumbermack was near VA 42 and had trail magic for us--peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, soda and oatmeal cream pies. Thank you!
Stopped for second lunch at Knot Maul Branch Shelter with friends.
The mist started, then the rain. The trail turned and we were opened up to the wind. Then into a clearing where we were totally exposed. It was miserable. Visibility was reduced and it was hard to see where the trail went. The wind was gusting rendering the poncho worthless.
At one point I had gotten off the trail, and couldn't figure out where the trail led. B had gone up ahead to the shelter to save us space. I continued on.
Then I saw B coming toward me on the trail! We're close! There's space! The shelter turned out to be one of the nicest--four walls, a door and fully enclosed.
