Day 38 - Mt. Airy to Damascus

Woke up to the smell of bacon cooking. Skip also cooked sausage, biscuits, and scrambled eggs. Fresh fruit and juice, too.

Then we all got into two cars. Skip first took us to his manmade pond, where he fed his catfish. Then we took a tour of his Modular Wood factory. After that, we went to see their cabin. It was really nice, and will be much nicer when renovated.

Back to the house for lunch (leftovers), then we headed out for Damascus. Dave and I still had to do laundry. Luckily the outfitter was open, so he got a Platypus and I got an eyedropper for my bleach (instead of using a water filter).

Headed to the local eatery for dinner. Nothing but hikers here. Kid Rock was his usual self. I got a humungous trail burger – only ate half. In a six-bunk room tonight. Pretty tired. Should I change my name to Shortshanks?
