Hot Springs, NC

We're still riding the Tennessee/North Carolina border, and will be for a few hundred more miles. Hot Springs is small, but very nice, and after a soak in the town's namesake springs, we are ready to get back on the trail. Technically, however, we haven't even gotten off the trail, since it travels down all 0.3 miles of Main Street. We are at the 271 mile mark, I think, and we are excited about moving on. We hope everything is going well at home, and we can't wait to see you on the trail.

P.S. We will try to celebrate Jessica's 24th birthday (April 27th) in Damascus, Virginia if anyone wants to join us. We should be there within a day or two and may lay up there for a couple days. All arrival/departure dates subject to change without notice from the management.

You guys are doing great! By my estimation about 12.3 miles per day. Weather seems to be pretty mild in VA by the Hancock family's account. Keep rollin! You guys are in my thoughts every day!

I can hardly wait to talk to Nancy every day to find out how you both are doing! It sounds like you all are having the time of your life! The Indiana and Denver gang think about you all every day! XOXOXO
