Miles Hiked: 11.4
Hours Hiked: 9
I woke up early this morning because I wanted to hike some good miles today. It was cold. Very, very cold. I found the other thru-hikers a wee bit young and annoying, so I decided to get a hotel room instead of staying at the next shelter tonight. Also, I knew that my sister was due to have a baby any day now and I wanted to be in a place with phone reception and where I could make sure my phone battery was charged. So after hiking 11 miles I spent the evening and night in Cornwall Bridge, CT at a motel. The owner of the hotel, Mr. Patel, an friendly Indian gentelman was very friendly and gave me a ride from the trail. The town also has a general store with overpriced candy, so I stocked up on snacks and enjoyed a sandwich for dinner while watching mindless TV and enjoying the heated room.

You can no longer drive a car across this bridge, but the Trail uses it to cross the river.
I like this rock wall. Which I was recently informed is called a rock wall and not a stone wall, as I previously thought. :)
This is the first time that I have seen a bench on the Trail! Huzzah!
For a short time the Trail follows a road and passes in front of this high school.
