Days 68-75

It feels amazing to be halfway through. The weather was brutally hot coming out of Virginia, but has cooled off a bit now. Miles come easy in Maryland and southern Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania still feels like the south.

One aspect of the trail that I really like is how it brings so many different people together. I've hiked with a British girl, a family from Kentucky (dad, brother, sister and cat), a few people from NC including one guy who lives 10 minutes from me, Germans, a Russian, Canadians, and a Scotsman. All differences melt away into nothing out here. People are people and that's all that matters. It's beautiful.
