Someday is today
We woke up to heavy rain this morning. Everyone stayed in the shelter hoping the rain would ease up a little. It finally did around 8:30. We hit the trail around 10. It was a very late start but we knew the trail would… Continue Reading “Day 15 on the Vermont Long Trail”
Family Mule was up most of the night fighting the mice away from the shelter. Yes, David Logan Shelter has a bad mouse problem. Ugh! The morning was chilly. We started packing up around 6:45 and hit the trail around 8. It was a slow… Continue Reading “Day 14 on the Vermont Long Trail”

We decided to take a zero in Manchester today. We needed to get to the town in order to finish resuppling. We were absolutely not staying in the Red Sled Motel again so we found another place called the Toll Road Inn.
It rained through the night and was still raining when we woke up this morning. Poor Sissy Bear woke up several times through the night to be sure her tent would still open. She has a fear of getting stuck in the tent so… Continue Reading “Day 5 on the Vermont Long Trail”
Today was packed with fun! We realized we had to hit town a day earlier than anticipated due to the food count. We geared up for a long day. Kids were dreading it because we had to push over 17 miles today in order… Continue Reading “Day 4 on the Vermont Long Trail”
