     Taking a zero day and will probably leave Hot Spring Sunday morning. 281.9 miles from Springer Mt., GA.
     My husband and I had two wonderful days in Hot Springs.  I didn't arrive there until Friday Morning.  I stopped by the local restaurant for some breakfast thinking my husband wouldn't be in town until noon - wrong!  John arrived at Hot Springs Thursday night and got a room at the Alpine Motel.  All my hiking friends had seen Si Thursday evening at the restaurant.  Everyone knew they were in town except me!  I had ordered my biscuit and egg sandwich and started to eat when in walked John.  What a wonderful surprise!
     It was great having two days of a warm room and a bed, delicious meals that I didn't have to cook, and a chance to enjoy Hot Springs with my husband, but it had everything a hiker would want.
     Home of the Hot Springs Trailfest, usually the second week of April.  The A.T. passes through the center of Hot Springs on Bridge Street, and most services are located on the Trail.
