We finished the last few miles to Silver City and I made a beeline to the first burger joint I saw – a Sonic burger drive through. I took my burgers over to a donut shop where Pat was waiting. While inside a group of older couples started asking me questions about my hike. It was really fun answering their questions and visiting. They invited me to join them, but I wanted to go outside and eat my burgers in peace, then off to a hotel for a shower and a clean bed. And then more food. I love town days! 🙂
