There isn’t much to do so I get my laundry done, shower, resupply, clean up and prepare for the final days of this hike. Talked with a couple of through hikers who stopped here only to resupply, have lunch and then went on their way. An early retired couple (in their late 50’s) from Cincinnati who sold their house and bought an RV are here. They are traveling the country. We spent some time talking about travel and the joy of being retired.😊
There is a small room with a DVD player and I watch “Captain Phillips” starring Ton Hanks to pass some time.
I also made my arrangements to fly home out of the Tri Cities Airport on Friday on American Airlines. I expect to hike into Damascus on the afternoon of the 12th, stay one day to clean up and arrange for shuttle to airport and fly home the next day.
WiFi here is only right outside on the porch of the general store and it’s spotty. It would really be good if they improved it.
Tomorrow I plan a 9 mile hike. It’s short because after that there is a 5 to 6 mile stretch where they do not want you to camp because of Bear activity🐻. I will hike past that and a way beyond the following day.
In the morning I will say goodbye to the Black Bear Resort.
