Wood's Hole Hostel

Greetings from Wood's Hole Hostel!!!

Sallie & I have had an amazing time walking through Virginia, Great trail, great views, lovely forest, generous people, warm southern hospitality, and Awesome Food!! Since our last post we spent a day with a fellow who teaches Earth skills (basic living in Nature), we had a day & 1/2 that we didn't see any other humans!, we went to a ZZ Topp concert, hiked across the triple crown of best views through VA (Tinker Cliffs, McAfee's Knob & Dragons Tooth), then crossed the New River!
We did not plan to stop here however it was a nasty day, & sallie banged up her front left leg chasing a chipmunk and through a rock field so we decided to make the day short! we were welcomed into this lovely oasis less than 1/2 mile off the trail where sallie is resting and i helped a little bit with some garden labor =:) we have enjoyed two fabulous meals and will be back on the trail shortly.

This is Indian Cucumber Root.
have seen this edible plant in every state so far.

It's been interesting to watch from formation to seeding.
