Pictures from The Appalachian Trail. 2 1/2 Weeks....130 miles....

Here are some of the best and worst times of my life so far. It has been pretty rough and slow going! The views at the tops are awesome, still debating weather its worth summiting EVERY mountain, but..... oh well. The people I've met are awesome. One older guy picked us up walking into town in the rain. He summarized it best in saying, "hiking the AT restored my faith in people...." He said you discover that there are still good people in the world. It was true for me again when last night a young couple drove us, cold wet, and dirty...oh and stinking, into town, miles out of their way. By us I mean four filthy hikers and a wet dog...with all our gear!

So, I made it through Georgia....thank God! Now I'm into North Carolina. I will be in The Smokies in about three days. After that.....? Well one thing at a time.

I'm having trouble posting pictures on here, but I'll keep trying...

....until next time.....

uhhh....don't have a catch phrase yet....

but like they say here....
"I'm thru-hiking, till I'm through hiking.."
