Day 77 | Boiling Springs Pool Day and Lisa’s Hostel | Appalachian Trail Thru Hike 2021

[@kellyhays23]

To everyone telling me to mail my socks to darn tough: the outfitter is a certified seller therefore I was about to receive my free pair of socks in store. Hence why I disposed of the socks. Much easier method to just exchange in store rather than deal with mailing things in the thru hiker world.

I hope you enjoyed Boiling Springs...I live in the area and run the trails quite often. I would like to think as hikers pass through the area they find the town friendly and accommodating. Have a safe rest of your trip Kelly...I follow your adventures and enjoy your attitude towards life.

[@patriciawilliams8890]

Hi Kelly, thanks for mentioning us. We were the “older couple” that talked with you at the Boiling Springs lake. Love following your adventure. Good luck & God bless and keep you safe. Ben & Pat Williams

[@kellyhays23]

Nice job. ✌️👊

[@leverman7517]

glad you got a private space, you need that to rebuild your reserves! Happy hiking!

[@KrisKazmierski]

I’m also a contact lens wearer. Thanks for the the ball cap to keep rain out of the eyes suggestion. I don’t usually wear one but I will next year on my thru!

[@turragorman59]

What a great space all for yourself.

[@gregoryhelm4230]

I love that town and 😲 really nice hostel. And only 40 bucks s*** can't beat that!

[@bryanford1139]

I wish I knew about Darn Tough socks b4 this. I work on concrete floors all day, every day. I tear thru socks somethin crazy, coulda saved some $$dough$$ May the trail rise up to meet you, Kells. Keep on keepin' on ☮

[@sukierusso5738]

That’s a great deal for $40. So enjoying your videos. Thinking how sad I will be when your thru hike is over. Hopefully you’ll have van life content after this journey.

[@charlesdang4670]

Kelly, how many steps do you take per day? Do you have a step counter? I am just kind of curious.. that's all.. :)

[@gratefulhikes]

I say at least 28k but I bet 34k-35k

[@PInk77W1]

4,380,000 for the AT

[@craigadamkelly]

Did you go swimming?

[@mkarp8464]

You are an inspiration! I have medical bills too, they suck and they don't just disappear. I'm going through breast cancer treatments, I cannot through-paddle the Northern Forest Canoe Trail (NFCT) as planned this year - but last weekend I took a 2 night paddle into the backcountry in the Adirondacks in New York, with less weight, less gear, and still got outside. You getting your butt back out on the trail after your surgery made me realize I could do it! Thank you and keep up with enjoying the small things on the trail as you go (like tubing, kayaking, swimming...) I watch Dixie, you, and the WAWO - the Wander Women (a bit older than me) - all women who just keep going.

[@lifeinrussia5190]

Cozy mobile home at the end of the video.

[@thomasschimmeyer8715]

Mail em to Darn Tough! lol i am sure others have said this.

[@gratefulhikes]

Hey Kelly! Sorry about the forced zero. Thinking happy thoughts about your situation. Trail looked and sounded so beautiful today. Corn fields remind me of my grandma too! Everyone should get to play in a corn field at least once in their life! Looked like a hella cute town, I’ll have to add it to the list of must stops. Glad the outfitter swapped out your socks. Such a great company. I won’t wear anything else anymore. Loved the double wide, great deal for 40 beans!🙏 Thanks for bringing us along today. I hope tomorrow’s miles are kind. Keep truckin’ and be well. #giveashit -Grateful ❤️💙🌹💀🌹💙❤️

[@benhikingoutdoors1632]

Nooooo dont throw the Darn Toughs away! They have a lifetime warranty. Just send them in and they will send you a brand new pair for free!

[@kellyhays23]

I got that new pair for free from the outfitter with the warranty

[@benhikingoutdoors1632]

@@kellyhays23 ahh ok, always had to exchange mine to get the new pair.

[@tubesockets120v]

I've paid $125 a night 🌙 for a camper like that at a local campground.

[@jzoop1]

How was the pool?

[@scotegertson2300]

You look so happy!

[@trail70brent]

You could’ve sold those socks on eBay for 100 bucks lol

[@eddieeteuati2540]

Agree with you 💯

[@annetaylor7496]

Swimming and eating northbound up the Appalachian Trail. Sounds like a book title for you

[@caleighivanhoe478]
