April 6th - Day 36

Being 2 days from Virginia was super exciting we only had to do a 14 mile day and a 15.9 mile day and we're in Damascus, Virginia. Woke up early and hit the trail. It was a great day! The terrain was pretty easy and we got to the shelter around 3:00. I tented because the shelter was full but we're all happy with the weather so I was pumped to do it. It was a cool night with a nice breeze that kept me comfortable. We built a huge fire and stayed up pretty late. We all know each other and we're starting to become good friends. It seems like every night you know everyone that was at the shelter with you. It wasn't the same people every night but we have all met and the warmer weather allows us to be more social. I'm having tons of fun!
