Iggy Pop lives in Pine Grove, PA!

Today was a relaxed day mostly because we had to trek into town for our first mail drop in pine grove pa. Technically our first drop was in gardners but we had to have that package forwarded since the post never seemed to be open when we needed it to be. But pine grove made up for it. In addition to our food drop we had not one but 2 trail magic packages awaiting us. THANK YOU Jason and Jack - you guys made our week! There's a solar shower at our shelter so I put your shampoo and condit to good use, Jack. My hair hasn't been this lustrous since we hit the trail. And we shared the dark chocolate and squid chocolates with the big posse staying at the shelter tonight which was appreciated by all...there was a small debate on whether we were eating squid or slugs. The squids won it in the end.

ahhh...but back to the post office...as we were surveying our grand loot...a local walks in to check his po box and cautioned ua about the rattlesnakes. After he left, billy goat and I looked at each other and said: "iggy pop lives in pine grove, pa!" lust for life is alive and well in pennsylvania.

I'm so pleased you got my package and it hit the spot!

They're slugs! I'm at UCSC, the home of the banana slugs. Glad they were tasty and enjoyed by all you hardworking ATers. Keep it up.

Hi you two,

I sure hope you guys are having a blast. I dreamt of hiking with you last night Paulie - it was a wierd mix between an AT trip and one of our Shen jaunts.

Sadly, there were no concession stands.

Things here are normal; thanks for your message and sorry we missed you. Kate and I miss you lots and think/talk about you often. Can't wait to see you guys.

Many hugs and happy thoughts,

Owl

So, I just read in the paper that the Summer Solstice is also Hike Naked Day. Just curious if you two took part in that "celebration."

We miss you!
