Nancy's rear shifter cable just broke off on a back road (rough dirt) on the north side of the river approaching Gorham. Mike of Moriah Sports took care of it on the spot! |

Clair noticed us in Gorham and invited us to share her campsite! She's an Appalachian and Long Trail through-hiker extraordinaire, just off the Long Trail in Vermont. She shared her campsite and her life and gave us much joy. |
