Camped with Dillydally, Smiles, Hobbit, Ducky, Fedex and Teatime. Banjo and Snuggles were going to camp there but then decided they were going to try to night hike the 24 miles into Chester and pull a 42 mile day just to try it. Ohm also pushed another few miles.

I got into an argument with Tea Time about whether the full moon rises when the sun sets or not. It does. I thought that was an obvious fact,, but apparently I can't be right because I'm a girl and he was in the army in Israel and he knows everything. Which made me really annoyed. Being disregarded because I'm a girl even though I'm completely and totally right is so annoying and frustrating. Most people on the trail are pretty welcoming, niceand over all pretty rad people that I enjoy hanging out with and getting to know. This was not one of those times. Thankfully, I don't run into people like Tea Time very often.
