I'm back in the woods. Even the 2.5 day detour some 850 miles to drop "Troll" off made it difficult to get back in the woods but back I made it. I lost the military people but met back up with Noah-John who I hiked with 400 miles ago. We are staying in Waynesboro VA tonight and then into Shenandoah tomorrow. We should be in Harpers Ferry WV (160 miles) in 8 days or less and that's the unofficial 1/2 way point.
In lighter news hikers feet smell like dead something as a 3 foot eel tried to nibble on both Noah-Johns and my feet when we were soaking them in a river. I also crossed a little turtle on the trail and a there were toads and lizards everywhere today. Also saw a spider that was no less than 2 inches across...scary.
Last night I camped illegally on a ridge that overlooked the valley where the town I'm in is. It was amazing and I took some good pictures.
I plan on doing the 4 state challenge which is: in 24hrs trek leave VA, go thru WV, MD, and start PA. It will be interesting. We shall see. My time is about up here but Ill keep on trekking and I promise that Ill post my favorite privy's soon. There are some good ones on the at and good stories with them.
Times up. Hope you are all well. Talk to you soon.

I'm glad your trip is going well. I hope bring "Troll" up to Maine does not slow you down too much. Can't wait to see your next blog~Melissa
Troll update:
The troll has passed its bloodtests and is ready for introduction to the general populus. After a brief adjustment period to its new surroundings and house mates the ferret wrestling training will begin.....
