Day 13: 95 Degrees and Climbing
95 degrees and climbing (temps and mountains, I'm punny). Summited Prospect Mountain this morning, talked to a wise/crazy old man perched on a rock. Made a new trail friend Frodo, walked into Salisbury, CT (home of Meryl Streep) to get some deoderant and lemonade...and some bagels so we could sit in the air conditioning for a bit. Chad taught me how to play chess, then beat me in chess, but at least he drew it out a bit. Now, 1000 ft up to Mt. Riga shelter for the night. I'm feelin' hot hot hot.
