Day 6

Day 6 is one that will never be forgotten.  72.34 miles. Had to wait till a thunderstorm stopped before packing up to leave. Left a little after 6:00 am. Started to rain again a couple miles out and didn't stop for the next 40 miles. Add heavy winds with gusts over 35 mph at 61 degrees and that makes it a very enjoyable day. Been a fun week and also a not so fun week. We had a member of our group crash and end up in a local ICU on Wednesday.  Possible internal bleeding due to spleen damage. Then an elderly man from another group that was camping next to us passed away in his sleep sometime early Thursday morning. Tomorrow brings on the hills.
