Now at Neel Gap, 31 miles from Springer, staying at Mountain Crossings hostel. Rain seems to be holding off, but warm with high humidity. Can't wait to take a shower here. Met a few more interesting people, several of them out hiking on missions like Kibs. One guy with MS, trying to raise awareness; ditto a woman Army vet with PTSD and a service dog. Speaking of Kibs, I left him at a shelter with a bunch of nice people content to do fewer miles than me. He may catch up with me tonight, since I stopped here after only 8 miles today. Forecast is for a strong thunderstorm this afternoon, rain tonight, so that might motivate him.
