After a few miles we stopped at a well known hiker destination... The cookie lady! For 20 years she has been giving any hiker who comes by free homemade cookies, and selling the eggs from her chicken coops for 35c a piece, hardboiled or fresh, they even provide the salt if you want to eat them there. I bought 5 dollars of the best tasting hardboiled eggs I've ever had and stuck them in every pocket I could manage, a can of ice cold Coke, and ate a half dozen oatmeal cookies before getting back on the trail in the rain. We were told we were the first group of hikers to stop by that year, which was a minor but uplifting accomplishment given we were all soaked to the skin.
