Day 8 - Garlic

May 23 - Franklin, NC to Wayah Shelter - 11.0 miles

Caught up to Papa Nuke and Caboose at Wayah shelter, which means wolf in Cherokee if you were wondering. Papa Nuke is the director of a nuclear power plant in Georgia and is hiking the first 200 miles of the AT with his son. He had some great advice for the blisters on my feet and even gave me some moleskin for it. The hiking community is awesome out here.

Back in Franklin Jake and I picked up a whole clove of garlic to eat, thanks to PeachTree's advice of it being an anti-inflammatory. I love my garlic but wow, that stuff is potent when you eat it raw.
