Day 3 Bent Creek to Wingina
by Tom Bowman
Today's treat was stopping at James River State Park, where the camp store had Blue Bunny ice cream! I was also
able to pick up duct tape to fix the flag and a lighter, which replaced my soggy waterproof matches...which I think
were purchased in England during the 80's. Also experienced a "Morning Dew" swim party. Coming up the boat ramp at Wingina, skinned my
knee, chasing an errant NRS strap. Pretty sore the rest of the trip...suck it up, Tom!
