Hello to all our friends at WB. Toesocks fell going into DWG and now has a back injury. We are back in Auburn to seek medical treatment and will probably not return to the trail this year. Will keep you posted on the outcome.:mad:
Hey Toesocks I'm awfully sorry to hear about that, but you all made it further than me. That knee injury in Pearisburg turned out to be a stress fracture, and I had to get off in Waynesboro. You guys will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Toesocks, I read on your trailjournal. So sorry to hear that.
I'm a friend of Green Hornet's and saw that you had hiked with him a bit. I let him know on Saturday morning, when he called from Kent, CT. He had a fall as well, in NY. He was walking along a knife's edge, lost his footing and his knee was the first thing to hit on a rock. :(
He said he's starting to heal, but has been going pretty slowly to allow for that healing process.
We give you both our best and hope that Mr Toesocks has a full recovery. The trail will still be there.

Toesocks I hope that all turns out well. both of you are in in mine and lady "GB'S" thoughts and prayers.
Please keep us informed on your progress.
I am so sorry to hear that. Back injuries really suck, even if you're not hiking. Best wishes for a speedy recovery.

ToeSocks 1 and 2,
Thanks for the awesome trail journal, after i ran into you in NC (near Big Bald with Crossroads) I was tracking you all on your journal. I was very sad to hear that Toesocks hurt his back and you all had to hop off of the trail. I hope everything is going well and you two get back on the trail after everything is healed up.

We saw them in Baxter at the Birches, but Toesocks 1 was still having a lot of difficulty. He had Lyme disease on top of the broken rib. They tried to climb Katahdin but could not. I never saw a more loving and devoted couple. May God heal them quickly so they can complete their dream.
