Alright!! We're in our final 5 states!! We blew through New Jersey and saw A LOT of bears. We saw 2 adults and I'm pretty sure we walked by a bear den with 4 cubs one day... we ran out of that area tho in case mother bear came back while we were around! New York was incredible, but a little harder than most of us expected! The trail thru PA and NJ was mostly rocky, but they were little rocks that really hurt the feet. The rocks in New York were huge, and you were pretty much rock climbing up and down them. It was actually a fun change of pace on the trail.
Jesse (i.e. Mr. Tea) is back on the trail, so the five of us are together again! We just got into Connecticut yesterday and got into town today! I got really sick a few days ago on the trail (luckily we were taking a zero day, which is a day that we do zero miles, haha). And yesterday, Eric seemed to get the same thing. We think it is just a viral bug tho and not related to water or food (otherwise it would have been way worse and lasted longer than a day). Hopefully he feels better by the end of today, and we're not hiking which should help. Claire, Laura (i.e. Speakeasy)'s dog, seems to have fallen a little ill as well. We're taking her to the first vet clinic we find (which should be tomorrow) and getting her tested for Lyme Disease. :( I hate to leave everyone hanging on that note, but we'll know soon enough, and luckily there is a treatment, so she'll be alright.
Well, that's all for now! I've got to get off the library's computer and finish laundry! :) Miss and love everyone!
p.s. Sandy! We realized Kim had left her headlight. She already replaced it, so she should be fine, but I'll double check with her and see if she wants it mailed out... otherwise, its all yours!
