The several times I have hiked the A.T., I have come to really appreciate the willingness of my wife to support me every step of the way. This forum has made several remarks about marriage breakups but not so much about spouses working together to help the hiker finish!

Well, here's one for my wife and all those spouses out there, who patiently let us guys (or gals) fulfill their dreams of hiking the A.T.

Thanks Elaine.
