On June 12th we got a real treat. That's the day I was fortunate enough to meet the cutest angel I ever met, John Hasty. He met Samson at a shelter right after we left and offered to make some dinner for the thru-hikers and made an arrangement to meet us up the trail a bit. John pulled out a grill and made us homemade pancakes, grilled sausage, and eggs. Wow! The meal came complete with orange juice. He kept making up the good eats as long as we kept gobbling them down. He was even so gracious to make a little take-out for our friends Mas and Blazing Star who had hiked up the trail a bit earlier than us.
John said his son, Snakebite, had completed a thru-hike northbound last year and that he was just trying to give back to the trail what so many others had done for his son on his trek. Thank you John! You made our day and as you can see ... Mas and Blazing Star were elated to have some non-dehydrated dinner once we caught up to them. Take care!

How neat! I have heard that there are a lot of people that take care of the hikers but pancakes and sausage? A man after my own heart! AB
