Bear Mountain NY

This town is pretty much where I had my day of days. I was just feeling really tired and starting to burn out and thinking all those wonderful thoughts that go something like "why am I out here" "I still have so far to go" "I don't think I want to do this anymore" and so on. Going home for my sister's grad, seeing everyone and just being able to completely relax also had something to do with this mood as well.
So my mom being the amazing person she is spent the day with me, talked things over with me and after an insane amount of driving around we ended up back at Bear Mountain where we found a little hotel and I pretty much chilled and rebooted for the rest of the day. Which was much needed.
By the next morning I was feeling much better, hit the trail and ended up doing about 15 miles. And I've kept on going ever since. But this has probably been the most mentally trying day of the whole trip.
