Bland to Perisburg

Another short section this time. We had originally planned on going from Marion to Pearisburg but stopped in bland to take care of bobcats leg. The weather has been scattered thunderstorms for several days now and we started out in the pouring rain. By mid afternoon though it had cleared up and me made it 20 miles to a campsite near dismal waterfall. In the middle of the day we hit the 600 mile mark. It seems like only yesterday we were at 500 and 400 doesn't seem to long ago either. The next day we did 23 miles into pearisburg. Construction going on nearby though means all the hotels are filled up. Luckily some friends from the trail had parents in town and we're able to give us a ride to the next town over. We'll have to hitch later this morning back to the trailhead.
