I’ve been lucky with rides and covered a lot of ground quickly. I caught a WILD ride across Dalton and passed out in some woods near Chatsworth.
Had some difficulty hitching out the next day, but eventually this cool couple picked me up and drove me to Ellijay, then we shared pizza and beer. Day started terribly, ended great.
Went to the Bigfoot Museum the next day. I want to believe, but I’m still not convinced.
Caught a ride to Blue Ridge, shared some homemade Pumpkin Meade with the local bookstore owner.
Made it to Blairsville and hung out with the local grocer and shared stories for most of the day. He was one of the cooler people I’ve ever met.
Made camp behind the local Methodist church, went to the service the next morning to hear the choir sing and met an ex-con who gave me ride up to Murphy, NC.
Visited Clays Corner the day after and met the owner of the legendary Possum Drop.
Went back down in to Georgia and passed through Hiwassee, then the German themed tourist town, Helen.
I’m still movin along. Thanks for the support 👍
