We went to Shoney's for breakfast and then got a ride right away. We didn't ever ask, just started walking toward the park entrance and some day hikers who were headed up to the Blue Ridge Parkway pulled over and asked us if we needed a ride. Hardly any clouds, blue skies, bright sun. Hands down my favorite day on the trail so far. Magnificent views, Charlies Bunion was cool. Its a rocky outcrop at 5,905 elev. Some great little narrow ridges that were fun to hike, its like you are on the top of a ridgeline and steep sides going down on either side of you. Guessing it was in the low 60's all day, prefect temp for hiking! Some thoughts that were swimming around my head about the future and endless possiblities. Amazing what some good weather can do for you mood. The sun makes me happy!
