It was hot today. Triple digits in the shade, humid as a rainforest, hardly any breeze. We, of course, went on multiple hikes. We scouted out potential eclipse viewing locations at the tops of mountains, climbed in caves and other fun rock formations, and probably covered ourselves in poison ivy. It is freaking everywhere. Most of it is yellowing like it hasn't seen rain in a month, so maybe it's less oily. I don't know. I didn't wake up covered in itchy red bumps this morning, which is shocking considering how surrounded we are by it. I don't think I will escape unscathed though, considering how much more trekking through the woods we did today. It was so impossibly hot today that we all took a break and sat in the car with the air blasting for an hour or so. Andrea shared hikes and meals with us and it felt like we had known her for a while.
It looks like the sky will be overcast here tomorrow, so we will be waking up early and driving to Kentucky for better viewing.
