We took our first zero day today. A very tough decision since we all wanted to go back to the trail but we secretly knew a relaxing day would be better for our legs. I spent the morning exploring the downtown of Franklin, NC and the afternoon with a two-hour stretch and also read an entire book.
Why Not, Pom, B-Line and I went to a pizza place for dinner and we each got our own pizza. Now our packs will be about 3 pounds heavier since we have left over breakfast, lunch and dinner. B-line was the only one brave enough to get an 18 inch all by himself and it could have fed us all (never mind the free breadsticks that came with it).
We also got a few pitchers of beer and of course I couldn't pass up the Rocket Girl beer from Ashville, NC.


Way to go Rocket! See that's why you got that name! Your mom and I were chatting yesterday about the name and saying that at some point, something would show up that fit the name other than its original meaning and there it is Rocket Girl Beer!! Much better!! Your pics are outstanding and congrats on 100 miles! Hope the next few days are great before the next town (did the bed feel wonderful?) and keep those updates and pics coming!
