Tennessee

DPG once again posting on behalf of our (somewhat) beloved friend... only kidding dmoney. I talked to him on the phone for about 15 minutes when he was in Gatlinburg (spelling?) Tennessee. Apparently Gatlinburg is one of the biggest tourist attractions in the country and it sounds like a Jersey Shore beach town, except bigger and in the Smokey Mountains and not the east coast. He set up shop in a the Royal Budget Inn for $30 a night for two days to let his knees rest from the rigors of the trail. He has been making great time averaging arond 23 miles a day. HE also has been signing off on the trail books as Dave from PA, so if you ever hike the AT, look for that. Welp thats all, I just got in from a stellar mid-week trip to Reading to visit the Legend, but since this isnt my blog and likely you dont care much to hear about my summer I will leave it at that. Good night.
