Day 16: Friday June 20

(Susan) Another day of road walking until the last mile which although is off road is on Posted property. We are camped here anyway (stopped early-6:50) because the trail will leave the woods again soon. After a few cooler days it warmed up again today. No rain except a very short 3 minute shower--just long enough to pull out the rain gear, then put it all away again. We did a quick resupply in Rowlesburg in late morning--about a 3/4 mile walk into town and out. Hoped to find a restaurant open, but there are no longer any in town. The small grocery had a deli though and we ordered a disappointing pizza. The town looks like it's getting spiffed up--we ate lunch in a small park next to the grocery that appears recently completed. Most of main street is boarded up stores except a bank and "Curiosity Shop". In retrospect, I had enough food to get Dwight to the next resupply--which will be tomorrow in Kingwood. But I enjoyed seeing the town.
