Day 50: 500!

Our camping spot is so declared "Best Campsite Yet" and receives a gold medal of beauty and peacefulness. We liked it too much to wake up early and so we slept in.

But not too late, we had ponies to see and touch and miles to hike after all.

There were (fat) ponies aplenty as we hiked through the Highlands and went through rock tunnels and then...

We passed mile 500 of the AT! And some genius marked this milestone with a 500 made of pony pooplets! Amazeballs.

Then we hiked some more. And some more.

At a parking lot right before the last climb of the day and car pulled in and a nice lady got out and said, "Anybody want a beer?"! She was on a mission to be sneaky and leave a cooler of beer for her fiancé, who was hiking this section, so that when he finished he would have a nice surprise. Well she gave away a few to us thru hikers in the lot and moved on.

Now we are enjoying dinner.
