Big news for the day. First of all, I'm halfway to Katahdin! This here park marks the true halfway point. I pulled in here too late to eat the half gallon today. Arrived at like 7:30pm and the store closed at 7. So guess what that means... a half gallon of cookie dough for breakfast tomorrow! And then a 19-mile hike! Vomit city! Just as long as I get my spoon. Speaking of which, I saw the spoons and they're those little tongue depressor things you use with Dixie Cups. Grasshopper showed me his... which he got when he BROKE THE ALL-TIME RECORD! He did it earlier today (when I was still hiking): nine minutes and eighteen seconds. His flavor: cherry jubilee. Pretty amazing, eh? All I'm looking to do is finish, like a fat man in a marathon.
The other big news is that Skipper, of Skipper and Dusty, isn't Laura. It's a man! And Dusty's not a guy, she's Skipper's wife! So there's two Skippers (that I know of) on the trail. I'll have to let Laura know. So I guess that means she's either behind me, or up in Connecticut. In addition to Skipper & Dusty, I met Jordan, Tekman, Mike, Groovy, and some other guy (forgot his name). Groovy is a woman. Time for bed, there's ice cream to be had tomorrow.
