CT Day 25: Zero Day in Lake City

ByPurple Haze Posted onSeptember 8, 2022September 22, 2025

Daily Miles: 0, Total Miles: 357.9

Had to look for an extra blanket last night. I should have closed the windows but fell asleep too quickly.

Leisurely day in Lake City, a late breakfast at close by Chillin and bid farewell to MB and Yaya. Checked to see if the free shuttle back to the TH was running. It has been extended to Sept 11 but doesn’t leave until noon. I may try hitching -a weather system is moving in and I’d like to get in some early miles.

For dinner, couldn’t walk any further than back to Southern Vittles. A takeout BBQ sandwich and apple pie to enjoy during the opening day NFL game.
