We left Bly Gap and headed North again. We only hike 2.8 miles to Muskrat Creek Shelter. We were surprised to meet the man who had left his wallet at the Top of Georgia Hostel again. The shelter and the area surrounding it was very crowded so he decided to camp with us. Many campers and Boy Scouts were camping all around us. It was very hectic compared to what we were used to.

The next day was Sunday and we spent the day talking about God with the wallet man. I am convinced this man would be a great preacher. I told him so and he thanked me. For, he told me, he had come out into the woods to seek God’s will for his life. I hope I was part of God’s confirmation of his calling.

We decided to stay at Muskrat another night due to heavy thunderstorms that rolled in the late afternoon. We even stayed in the shelter for a half an hour because of lightning. But the storm passed within two hours. Wallet man decided to stay with us also.
