The Notch Hostel
Day 20, July 19, 0 miles
I can’t say enough good things about this hostel. The young owners, Serena and Justin, are wonderful hosts. They just opened July 15 and were full this weekend. The weekenders are gone, but there are still about 10 people here. I will be staying another night due to a hail and torrential rainstorm in the mountains. I and the other 2 NOBO’s that were going to hike together today all decided it wasn’t the day to be above tree line. Tomorrow is suppose to be nice–Thank Goodness. I am going stir crazy. The bad thing is that it’s just rain here, but the storm is up on the mountain, so it feels like I should be able to hike. Oh well. EVERYONE has told me over and over, “When you get to the Whites, if it calls for bad weather, don’t go.” So, since no one else is hiking out, I decided to stay. I’ve walked the 1-1/2 miles to town to stroll in the rain and have lunch and the 1-1/2 miles back. Now, I think I’ll take a nap.
Speck In The Woods 
Thank goodness for those other NOBO folks! I can just see little strong willed.. “I can do this”Renea heading into the White Mountains in a blizzard! Of course, I know Speck and Olfrie would come out on the other side just fine……but, still glad for the less hardy NOBO’ers! 🙂
