Hello everyone!! I’m about to begin what I anticipate to be my final section of an awesome AT experience. The trail is calling and I must go! I’m flying out today and expect to begin my hike in the morning. I didn’t expect anything unusual, but with me and my sweetie anything is possible! It’s a awesome thing to have the patience of a saint!! LOL. When we rolled out of the driveway at 3:30 everything was planned to the finest detail… that lasted 3 miles when my sweetie said, “OMG I don’t have my phone!!!” 10 minutes later we are back home to discover the phone was in her purse…..Grrrrrrrr. Another 30 minutes later we arrive at the airport, I hand the keys to my sweetie, get out of the car…. she locks the keys on the car……Grrrrrrrrr. Luckily I had popped the truck lid. You don’t really appreciate how small a Honda civic is until you are crawling through the trunk to get the door open!! As a memento, I sustained my first AT injury before I actually touched the trail. She says “Rub some dirt in it… Walk it off…” Can anyone say infection!!!
I’M BAAAAACK. YAHOO!!!!!! 800 Miles to go!
I’m praying for you brother!
Good luck Chris!
Wishing you the very best of luck, good health and trail magic. We will be following you.
