Mexican't...

5/2/08 - Morning of mail fiascoes meant they didn't leave town in very good time...
  • Early bird gets the bagel: Arrived downstairs for the continental breakfast 5 minutes after it was over... what a tragic way to start the day.
  • Spent all morning hitting up the post office (Snoopy's new pack arrived and Amos had to mail back his broken water filter & a roll of film) and waiting around for UPS to deliver Half-brew's summer gear (sent by his lady-friend/wife). I guess that transaction went down much later than expected because they didn't make it to lunch until around 3:30.
  • Say no to Rancho Viejo - a soggy queso burrito seeping with some kind of thin, watery salsa - 1st reporting of BAD Mexican on the AT!
  • Found Spock & Twiggy (yay!) 5 miles down the trail at Fullhardt Knob Shelter where they decided to spend the night.
  • Received a voicemail from Naked Ron (obviously hitting-up happy hour at el Rancho Viejo) checking to see if Amos was still in town - so close! Maybe he'll catch up in the next few days.

Hi! I'm SO proud of Amos for his progress so far! And I love seeing the pictures and reading the blog of the day's adventures. So thanks a lot for sharing!
A suggestion: Possibly begin each blog with a dateline as the newspapers do: ATLANTA or DALEVILLE, VA. It would help fat old losers (never did the AT) to keep a better track of where he/they is/are! Thanks.
