April 17

Met some maintainers (Piedmont ATClub) building rock steps—they asked if I wanted to help them collect rocks, and then suggested I take some back to Maine (or at least take a Pulaski back). I declined. I also had to convince them I was from Maine, since I don’t really have much of a Maine accent. The next day two guys (Pine and Dreamcatcher) tried a 50 mile day. Turns out they only did 47 b/c of bad signage, and they were sore for a couple days after…but they said they’d do another 50 again. Crazy. I like 20 mile days just fine.
