13 April Mount Holly Springs

Cold and wet.  It was raining when we left and the temperature was only in the high 30s.  The high was 50, maybe,  but not on the mountain.

We walked the rest of the way through Pine Grove SP and then up the mountain.  On the climb, I  warmed up to the point of sweating but Wendy was still cold in spite of wearing 4 layers.  At one point I had to hold her fingers because they were freezing cold. 

It rained all morning and tapered in the afternoon.  It never got warm but we both eventually warmed as we walked. 

All the rain had the leaves trying to open up but cold held them back.  They should really come out tomorrow when it warms.  I noticed the leaves are out much more here in town.  Looks like spring.

We had lunch at a shelter and walked 3 more miles to PA 94.  I called the number in the Trail Hiker's Companion and in a few minutes we were picked up and driven to the Holly Inn in Mount Holly Springs.  We are in a room, fed, and our stuff is drying. 

Actually we are starting through a section of Pennsylvania that is very developed.   I may take advantage these next few days!

Lynn, here is a picture of me as you requested.  Not much different yet
