When the Trail calls you,
its not on your cellphone!
Actually hike on the trail and find out? I think WIA is going to have the whole trail virtually hiked before she even packs a bag..
what if, what if, what if, what if.. holy moly.
should read AWOL, Skywalker, Barefoot sisters instead.
Wow, I haven't seen that movie in years. It's a good one, too.
"what was the best cairn youve seen while in a whiteout in the presis?"
This sounds all too familiar (to many of us)....the last time I did a 1 week hike on the AT in Penn, there was a guy who kept on catching up with me who was a rampid racist...I tried to be polite and divert the conversations but I can't tolerate racists! So, when I realized I was faced with him being at the same camp site as me for a second night, I walked into a town and hitchhiked about 20 or so km up the trail. Now I know this isn't a good option if you're thru-ing or a purist but for me it was essential for my own sanity and enjoyment. Noone should be miserable so some else can be happy....I mean really! Funny thing is if that racist wasn't on the trail, and I wasn't trying to get rid of him, I wouldn't live in the country I do now (long story...another time). LOL The bottom line is...do what you need to do to (eh, within reason) to make it YOUR hike not someone elses!
Cool story!! Isn't it weird how certain people and actions can change your entire life?This sounds all too familiar (to many of us)....the last time I did a 1 week hike on the AT in Penn, there was a guy who kept on catching up with me who was a rampid racist...I tried to be polite and divert the conversations but I can't tolerate racists!

Indeed WIA...indeed. I really love life here down unda! I do miss the AT though!!!! Coming from New Hampshire it was right in my back yard.
Harry Chapin's lyrics taught me how NOT to treat my kids.

"but we'll get together then, dad. you know well have a good time then".
do it now.
The power of songwriting can be amazing. I think that Harry Chapin inspired a generation on how to be there for their children.
My son is getting married later this month. When they have their first kid, Verities & Balderdash will be a CD he will be receiving.

Like a lot of his book, Mary Ellen was mostly a figment of Bill's imagination, concocked probably to help the book sell.
