May 20 - Deep Gap Shelter to Plumorchard Gap Shelter - 8.0 miles
"Life is short... dip it in Peanut Butter"
After a quick 3.5 miles we hitched in to Hiawassee and stopped at Smoke Rings BBQ for lunch. Wait. Lunch is an understatement. It was more of a port feast, which consisted of 5 BBQ ribs, 5 wings, 2 chili dogs, a cheese quesadilla, homemade chips and fried pork cracklings, with their respectice dipping sauce, as well as a local Terrapin beer and a slice of pecan pie for dessert. At least 4,000 calories for the entire meal - oh it's great to have a hikers appetite. Upon leaving Hiawasee we found Chopsticks!
What's for dinner tonight? A Granny Smith Apple, another PB twix, rest of the pepperjack cheese with some jerky and a snickers for dessert.
We're currently discussing food with two couples here at the shelter. One girl is carrying a bag of seaweed, cloves of garlic, a ginger root, small bottle of olive oil and nuts. She's pretty legit.
