Supposed to be more rain today and lightening. A northbounder also said maybe some hail, but that was predicted north of my destination. Heading as fast as I can today south. Hoping to hit Gorum, NH, finally.

On the last of my food. Rationing again. Have one bag of half eaten jerky, one ramen noodle, and a quarter bag of trail mix… Aprox. 15 miles to go in the rain. Yeah…..
Great! Now I have no TP either.

Got into Goram OK. Staying at the White Mountains Hostel. Very cool situation over here. Friendly and interesting staff, awesome food, comfy bed, laundry, wifi and seriously the best shower of my life. Needed one badly. They even have coffee and breakfast in the morning. AND they agreed to hold my bag while I walk into town for resupply. Because, literally I had the bag of ramen noodle left.
