Today was a wet one. It rained for most of the day. My umbrella worked great until the woods became too thick.  It’s too hot for rain gear, so I opted for the wet out. Just get soaked and keep hiking. 

The rain stopped long enough to allow me to pitch my tent. Shortly thereafter it started again. Another early night into the tent. The storm seems here to stay. It’s going to be a long night. 

But the good news…less than 1,000 miles to go!  That means I’ve already hiked over 1,200 miles. Wow!  That’s hard to believe.
