THEY DIDN"T SAY NO!
THEY DIDN"T SAY NO!
THEY DIDN"T SAY NO!
They didn't say yes yet either but I feel like I just climbed up Roan Mountain... IN THE RAIN, carrying Baltimore Jacks pack!
The plans for the Erwin Hiking Center are still plugging along and the property that I want for this new venture may work out in time to be open before April 1. That is the official goal.
THANK YOU to those that have given me helpful advice and assistance and the much needed encouragement. I hope to be able to share more next week... including the location...

yeeeepeeeee hoooooraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay
Don't forget, I will donate one week (or more) of my hike this year to being your work slave (no work for stay this year). I'm sure Feral is in too. So happy to hear everything seems to be working out. Can't wait to get to Erwin.

Let me know, I will drag Mike down w/ me for a few days to help in any way we can....that fleece you gave me for free saved my life in the smokies when (as you predicted) we were surprisingly hit w/ snow.

Hey Miss J, how are things going with the 501 (c) 3 status? Did you navigate the paperwork minefield ok? :) (You can answer that by PM if you'd rather not fascinate the masses with legal details...)
