Rain in Vermud

I am currently in Rutland, VT. Trailwise I am at Vt 103, 17 miles south of town, but 500 miles from Katahdin. The end is getting closer and closer. It has rained on us (currently Shadow, Filadelphia Greenburg and myself) every day that we have been in Vermont. We are running 6 for 6, and tomorrow looks like it will be 7 for 7. With all the rain we decided to give the hostel in Rutland a call and see if they could pick us up on trail. So tomorrow we will get dropped off at that same spot and then hike back to town. This way we get two nights of accomodation out of the rain and we still get the same mileage done.
When we left Dalton we quickly crossed into Vermont and the mud. We had been warned about the mud in Vermont and once we crossed over it began. Some people have remarked in the journals that it is not as hard on the feet as the roots or the rocks. However I have been stepping on all the roots and rocks to avoid the mud. So it has not been any easier on my feet.
I may be able to get back online tomorrow, but my time is close to running out today. One of our recent highlights spending the afternoon in Manchester Center and seeing the new Batman movie. It was a great way to spend an afternoon out of the rain. We then picked up out clothes from the laundromat and went back on the trail for a late afternoon 2 miles. Fortunately it was not as steep an out of town climb as we sometimes get.
Anyway here is hoping for more Sunshine when we get to New Hampshire.
