Day 47 May 23 A "nero" in Pearisburg

I said goodbye to Cowboy and walked two miles to Pearisburg,  passing Angels Rest.  



I had 4g so I facetimed Becky.

By the way, a "nero" is hiker talk for a near Zero day.  Since I walked two miles. that qualfied as a nero. 

I picked up my resupply and bounce box as well as care package from the Ballews at the Holiday Motor Lodge and had a restful day.  I also had a great lunch at La Barranca... Possibly the best Mexican food I've ever had

Total distance 630 miles

    Hey Paul, do hikers ever do the trail with out bounce boxes? Seems like you did a huge amount of planning to time all of the boxes etc.

      Hi Nicko, Sorry I didn't reply to you six years ago. I only just saw your comment. Yes, many people go without a bounce box. I just like the convenience of having some extra stuff on my zero days.
