Sixth hiker dinner on Monday night. We had 32 hikers for dinner. It was a full house. Many thanks to Grace Episcopal Church from Lexington, VA who provided a delicious and plentiful taco bar with salad, dessert and lots of trail magic to take back with them on the trail. Grace will be back next week with a fried chicken dinner.
Rev. Dr. Bob Copenhaver was with us playing the bagpipes and Bruce "Etch-a-sketch" Skillicorn was us for some hiker sketches.
