So I just rolled into Rutland VT this morning, after camping out in the parking lot of a Pub. Pretty excellent except for the guy who was also camping there who insisted on playing NPR really loud until 6am. I don't really understand that. But the Pub was pretty sweet, delicious Guiness, and the guy poured it so that there was a clover in the foam. I thought it was impressive.

Anyways, no pictures now cause I'm not sure where the cord is and I only get 30 minutes of internets at this library, but VT is really pretty. Not as intense as New Hampshire, but lots of rolling green hills, open meadows, blackberries, and little stores to get coke and ice cream from. Also, for the first time since the very beginning of the trail, there are extended flat easy sections. Its pretty fantastic. I've hiked 42 miles in the past 2 days, and don't feel too sore. There are a lot of yellow jackets though apparently. Three guys I was hiking with yesterday stirred up a nest right after we left this lake we were swimming in. I was still putting my shoes on after floating on my backpack in the pond for a little while. One of the guys bet me 20 bucks that my back pack wouldn't float me because everything in it is in a water tight dry bag. So I got 20 bucks and didn't get stung by bees. Kind of makes me feel bad though.

Computer time is about out... peace
