24 April. Port Clinton, PA

Back on the 30s last night.  Sunny day with clouds building in the PM.
Rained some but not before we made it to town.  Port Clinton is small, maybe 200 people.  The Port Clinton Hotel is OK, old like the Doyle but cleaner.   Also like the Doyle, it has a great restaurant.
The most noteworthy thing today is that we both took a tumble.  I tripped on a stick while walking on a level trail with few rocks.  Wendy slipped while coming down a very steep trail into town.  She slid, fell, and rolled down the very steep hillside before getting stopped.   We will both have some new bruises in the morning.

My knee did OK again today.  I wore the brace all day.  We did not see Box Man and Drifter so I could not thank him for the brace.  I did see Gone Walking - he is staying here too. 

I think we will take a couple of days rest but probably at a different hotel.  Fred Kauffman, a local "trail angel" has offered to help us so we will see him on the morning about a ride.
