July 16, Ithaca, NY
Good long hike this morning, got to the pickup location around 1 pm. It was a fresh farm fruit and veg. place. So what does a 300 mile hiker get at a stand like this??? 12 ears of sweet corn, 1 cantaloupe, 1 watermelon, 1 power aid drink. Gina and Drew arrived, and on the way back Gina stopped at a local beer making company where they give samples of their 7 flavors of beer. Now that is a topper for the hot sweaty 7 days of hiking. I liked their Pale Ale the best a got a bottle for dinner tonight. Lots of good food and company this evening.
