day 5: on the road again 04.09.2010
Song of the Day: Kiss Kiss - All They Draw
Location: Coatesville, Pa
Finally back on the road again today! I was starting to feel like a fraud. I was able to get a temp debt card and my passport for ID today so I have at least that. It was an exciting day because I finally made it out of familiar territory. I took route 162 west out of West Chester. The weather was breezy and bright. The scenery was pretty amazing. All kinds of farms, creeks, hills. I can't believe I grew up around here and never noticed where I was!
I stopped at a local market, Harvest Orchard, west brandford market, and it was great. They have hotdogs for a buck! I got four. The kind lady at the counter ask where I was hiking. I mentioned what I was doing and before you know it I got free cider and doughnuts! Best...day...ever! One of the ladies that worked there, Tracy, mentioned that she lived not too far away and said I was more than welcome to set up camp at her and her husband's place. So huge! A save place to camp and free food, a definite opposite of what had just happened to me a few days prior.
It's windy and going to get close to freezing tonight. Tomorrow is a long one; I'm going to spend the night at a campsite for the first time. 28 bucks, what a rip off. I'm camping for God sakes! Ill give you ten bucks and a thank you. Blah I say to those charging hotel prices for a plot of fucking ground! I want a doughnut! Take care.
