Granddaddy - Aug 27

Sending this from Mt Madison.

Slept on the floor at Madison Hut last night. Today Sunny and 45. Perfect. No wind.

My grandfather was a hut boy at Madison Hut in 1923ish.
I'm sure I stepped on a rock or two that granddaddy hiked on in the 20s. As I stand on the very summit I know he stood on this rock dozens of times. I get choked up every time I think about it.

This is the best weather day we have had in the Whites. Others have been great but today is perfection.
