All food packing is done for the first part of the trip. At least. Now, for the backpack. All is done on the home front too.
My feet are starting to itch for the trail.:)

Have prepackaged 60 meals today. This will be enough with a purchase or two at the towns I will pass thru. The 23rd approaches quickly and with each day I grow closer to being ready. In respect to the wife I'm looking forward to the hike yet wondering about her demise here at home. Oh well, dang if i do dang if I don't.:-?

After more than a year of thought it is decided that i will make the final steps in the Adventures of Ratchet doing the AT. That has been set and final preparations are here to do. Purchasing the bus ticket. packing the last of the 'home dehydrated food packs', and trying to pinpoint where I will be 'when'. That is the easy part. The hard part is trusting Mother Nature. Hoping in fair weather the whole trip. Yea, right!. Anyway, the final days are here and I'm intrigued by my fellow hikers remarks ...
