Upcoming Mail Drops
I talked to Trill yesterday and he was going into Port Clinton, PA (political comments withheld) to shower up and feed at a hostel there. He was with some other hikers so he is meeting up with others along the way. The last few days have been rainy but he has been knocking down some miles. He also commented that Pennsylvania is just as rocky as he had heard so his feet are a bit sore.
He asked me to update everyone on upcoming mail-drops. He is really enjoying finding surprises at the Post Offices. His next drop will be at Fort Montgomery, NY 10922 with an ETA of 5/29. He likes to get news updates and notes from you guys as well as small treats. The pre-season football poll was a big hit! Remember he is having to carry everything so he either eats everything on the spot or takes the light stuff with him. Trill, Jac has sent you a French box to me and I will forward from here. I bet there is some of that French sausage you like if it gets through Customs and maybe a morel, ramp and ramen recipe.
His next pick-up will be Kent, CT 06757 with an ETA of 6/3.
Kyle, if you want to join him for part of the trail, I have found ways you could fly into NYC and take a bus to Mass and hike the 70 miles of Mass with him. It involves flying to Laguardia or Newark, getting to a bus station and having a 2-3 hour bus ride each way. I expect him to be there around mid-June and I will be glad to set up the travel plans for you. I like figuring out all the connections so just let me know off-line if you decide that’s what you want to do. It will probably take 2 days travel and 4 days hiking but he would enjoy your company. You can also do a 30-mile trek for a total of 3 days if you had rather.
Kyle, Uh-oh Typo! The 3-day trek will be 4 days, not 3. Sorry about that.
