Took a zero day at the Top Of Georgia Hostel.
Woke up at 7:00 am and walked from the bunkhouse to the main office for breakfast of cereal and coffee.
After breakfast I went on line and printed out my permit for the Smoky Mountains.
Then relaxed and visited with other hikers. One thru-hiker named Romin has a service dog named Harley. Harley is hiking the Trail also and took a well deserved nap on his owners lap.
At 1:00 pm I took the shuttle into Hiawassee Ga., were I got something to eat, then walked over to Ingles and resupplied for the next four days. This should get me to my next resupply in Franklin NC.
Tomorrow I head back out to the trail. No rain forecasted for the next couple days, but it is supposed to get down into the teens the next few nights. I guess I’ll be testing out my cold weather gear.
