AT: Happily hiking in Massachussetts

I finally made it into Mass and things are getting better every day. My infected finger is very, very slowly getting better - it least it doesn't hurt any more. The trail starts to resemble trail again and I can actually hike 20 miles per day again - if I wasn't distracted all the time by talking to nobos, going into town and eating or bad weather. I have met some interesting people, but unfortunately they are all going the wrong direction....
My time at the library is running out, so more is to come next time.
