Franklin, NC

As soon as I get off the trail, there is a trail angel, snacks and drinks, provided by the local church. My buddy Ryan lef him his number and hotel he went to, the trail angel called the shuttle.

Was pretty cool to spend the 20 min chatting up religion, hikers, the AT and all thing spiritual w the angel.

The shuttle in this town is ran by Ron haven, he owns 3 hotels in Franklin and gladly shuttles hikers free to his properties.

Also offers a 4 pm outfitter, groceries, kmart run. And drops off on the at @ 9 and 11.

Got here and found Ryan, we split a room and have been hanging around town since yesterday.

The Bus full of hikers must have dropped a thousand in that place upgrading gear, gettin lighter, warmer, etc. I spent about 250 in the two days I was here.

We all went to a steakhouse as a group. Very interesting experience. 15 different stories, tricks tips, experiences, hardships, etc. Interesting class of 2010
