And so, it is already Julio. Half of 2025 is over! It is not as if the construction of time has been something I have thought about years. At this point, I feel that I could have told me that some amount of time had passed, and everything I could say would be … «Is it okay, and?»
I slept … okay? I have spoiled a little with the group of stays in hotels that I have had in the last month. In fact, I made a count, and spent more nights in a real bed than along the way. UPS! However, I think I needed it. The middle Atlantic had a larger price in my mental health and my physical health of what I could have expected. While the choice was soft, the terrain, the insects, the rain and the heat wave were the opposite. I’m glad to be making more progress than east now.
When I woke up, the shelter felt like a ghost town. I assumed that it was because everyone else were asleep, but if I got up first, that would be … shocking. I made a trip to the Sweet William cafeteria and bakery for an American and Croissant, before taking a last living room in the Labonne market for a sandwich. Of course I’m going to pack the city’s food when I can! In addition, I am quite sure that today there are garbage cans.
Salisbury’s exit and back to the forest was pleasant enough, to the fields and a relatively quiet ascent. At least, that is what the elevation promised. Actually, my brain was still out of that today. I don’t know what happens, but I still don’t feel so strong while walking! It is crazy how 1500 miles inside, I have not yet been able to mark my shoes. In retrospect, go to an analysis of the march before the path would have been my best option. Or at mountain crossings. Or in Outdoor 76. There were so many opportunities. But I was too worried about what I was on my back to concentrate on my feet. However, it is good to give as advice.
Finally, I found the ascent to the highest point in Connecticut, Bear Ct’s own mountain? Yes, it results for some reason, Ct also It has a bear mountain. The ascent was pleasant, but the descent was quite complicated. Another mini training camp in preparation for whites. At the top, I enjoyed the sandwich that I packed and drank in the views. However, it was very hot again. My speed is submerged, and I can finally say with confidence that correlation is all with moisture. If there is any, I simply can’t perform well.
During my descent, I met garbage panda and velcro, maybe for the last time. Both leave the way for a few days, just to take a break. But at this point, I have a way to go. Forward. And in Massachusetts! My native state! Actually, I’ve never been on this side of the state really: I had an automobile camp trip planned last year that included a one -day walk from Mount Graylock, but was canned due to a fairly intense rain. As a musician, I also wanted to make the trip here for Tanglewood. But I never did.
As much as I would like to adopt how great Massachusetts is, it begins with the beautiful ravine of the wise. Except … Sages Ravine has one very Greater defect. It is basically a swamp. Basically, it is a swamp. Which means that my enemy has come out again … infinite insects. Although I had set aside to start the day, and I stopped in Bear Mountain, and sprink my clothes with permethrin, they were implacable, going through my constantly discovered hands and legs. I quickly made my way and before realizing, I was at the intense climb of the mountain race and Mount Everett.
In heat and humidity, my heart rate increased constantly. Then, I constantly had to take breaks just to let the heart calm down. I was constantly breaking in the cardiac area of zone 2/zone 3 lower in these hard days, and although zone 2 is technically well, I do not want to break too much during the longest days.
At the top of the mountain race, there was a beautiful hiking of Ridgeline, even with the sun hitting. I expected more of the same on Mount Everett, but that was when the weather finally decided to turn. As the thunder sounds approached more and closer, I began to try to download as quickly as I could. But with the rocks that became more skilled, it was all he could do to not fall! And I did it sometimes. Fortunately, always in my butt. But at some point, I just accepted my destiny and began to be prowned through the mountain. I quickly went through the hemout shelters and I saw some hikers crouching the rain, before continuing on my way.
The last four miles of my day should have been the easiest. It was nothing more than flat fields, flat earth and flat woods. But, for some reason, my feet are still absolutely in flames. I don’t understand! I was testing the Superfeet green configuration that seemed to have worked before the Shenondoahs. Maybe I should never have changed, my body seems to have to get used to these things again. Ouch Ouch Ouch.
After a few miles of advance, I finally took Route 7 of the USA. And stood out my thumb with the hope of a hitch in the city. And voila! Almost instantly, a truck stopped, and took me to Travelodge where I had reserved the night. Yes, another hotel, again. But I wanted to explore a bit of great Barrington! It looks like such a lovely city. We will return in nature tomorrow.
In Travelodge, it was all I could do not to crash immediately to spend the night. I went to a fusion restaurant from Oriental Asia, where I asked for something … mediocre food. At least sushi was good. I obtained an Oreo McFlurry from McDonalds, and then called my mother after showering. My parents visit soon, and it’s time to really take logistics! That feels unreal. I originally thought I would be beyond this. I was a little agile, since it was late and I wanted to go to bed, but we have a plan together. So yes.
