July 31 Mile 1327

After a chilly night, up early and packed up to meet my Sweety later in the day. Short day, about 12 miles. Had to literally milk a stream to get enough water to move forward. Very dry here. Climbed over Sunrise Mtn-just a few hundred feet and went by Sunrise Pavillion, a nice place for a group picnic. Very civilized around here by the trail. Cisco says he always knows when we are coming near a road or a very public facility on the trail-he sees lots of broken glass! Hiked by beaver ponds and then ended the day around 3:00 after about 12 miles at the headquarters building at High Point State Park in this northern corner of NJ. A very pretty spot and cool old stone buildings. My Sweety arrives at about 5:00 PM and all is right with the world! We get a campsite at this state park, by a lake-but not real pretty-put up an old tent my Sweety brought from our basement, get dinner, and relax!!This is great!
