Thread: Class of 2010

  1. #1

    Thumbs up Class of 2010

    Has anyone out there started planning for a Thru-Hike in 2010?
    I've been a Section Hiker since '73 but now I want to do the whole thing.
    I'd like to hear from prospective 2010'ers.

    Thumbs up Three of us are planning for 2010

    A friend, my son, and I are planning on starting in March 2010. It's the 100th anniversary of Scouting in the US and it seemed as good as excuse as any to start a thru-hike.

    My bad, I thought it was a question mark (?). I guess I better get new glasses before I go hiking.

    Yeah, or else you might find yourself sleeping in a "shelter" that is very small and has a raised seat with a hole in it and is stinky.

    In my mind, my two oldest kids (15 & 17 right now) and I will be on the trail in 2010. But, there are a lot of "it depends on..." attached to that. I'm fairly certain at least one of us will be. Most every trip we take (whether hiking, visiting family or whatever) is decided at the last minute. So we'll probably know one way or another about two weeks before it's time to leave.

    How's that for a non-answer?
    We'll have to go out through the kitchen.

    Well the 'Dog-Gone' thing does look like a "?" here in Southern IN.
    Now had I been out home in OH. it would have looked like a 'Thumbs Down', do you see what I mean.
    After all "What is a HOOSIER"?

    My Thru-Hike is NOT Going to be a Thumbs Down adventure.
    I eat, sleep, walk, talk, work, run and the other thing where the raised seat is in the cramped little room that stinks, APPALACHIAN TRAIL.

    Will have to see how 2009 goes, with respect to the cardiac rehab ...but the wife (BadAss Turtle) and I are talking about another AT thru. Vote is still out. We might break it into to 2 seasons, which would work better with her calendar at the university. For me it don't matter because I'll be retired by then

    The more I learn ...the more I realize I don't know.
