Wed 27 Oct - Pearisburg to Woods Hole

Warm overnight but hard rain and wet trails.  Rain this morning then clearing, breezy, colder, and then rain again.  Some sun and warming this afternoon but getting cold again now.

Last night it was nice listening to the raon on the metal roof.  A great day to have a short hike and come back to a warm shower and hot meal.  Only 10 miles today but better than not hiking. 

Saw lots of peoplle on the trail today saw no one yesterday.  Saw Drifter and BB hiking north.  Still can't believe we met him again.   Like Wendy said, you expect you might see SPBOs or flip-flopers again - but not section hikers.

Hiked with McJeep (Joel) from NJ.  We will likely do it again the next couple of days.  We can share shuttles or shuttle each other.  It means we will continue to hike sections out of order.

Woods Hole is a great hostel.  Neville cooks a great dinner and breakfast,  and Michael gives us shuttles.  Both are licensed massage therapists.  Neville's grandfather started the hostel and her grandmother continued for 20 years after his death.  Neville and Michael have been running it for a year and a half now.
