June 28 Daleville, VA - zero day

We bought new (smaller) back packs and did laundry.

Rachel, a friend from church, is doing her senior project for Greenwood High School on the topic of the Appalachian Trail. She is going to spend a week hiking with us. She has never hiked or camped before. It should be quite the adventure!

Rachel and her mom Penny arrived today and we went to 'The Home Place' for dinner. They serve food family style, I haven't gone to a restaurant that does this before. It's like they don't want to make any money, they just kept giving us more and more food because they knew we were hikers. Rachel ate two bowls of mashed potatoes herself and she hadn't even hiked yet! We convinced Rachel to send home her heavier sleeping bag and use a blanket from her car instead.
