Frederick County

I began my solo journey soon after seeing Nicholas off. I took some time to chat with the ATC volunteers and walked back to my car with them to retrieve Patts. After whiz&poops and reassurance treats, we drove north to get ahead of Nick. We didn't get any shuttles today, and got kicked out of tenting at the Ensign Cowall parking lot. But I met a nice Smithsburg local there who gave me a few protein bars. I then reversed southbound and took a stroll down memory lane through Gathland State Park. I took some time to hang my shuttle signs in the car windows, and found a nice big trailhead parking lot closer to where Explanation would be hiking through. Patty and I slept in the car for the first time 😬. They were calling for a frost so it got pretty cold around midnight or so 🥶. Nothing a little cuddle won't fix! But I'm glad I brought blankets for her.En savoir plus
