    Default Thanks, Mrs. G.

    Mrs. G, Please thank Minerva for her hard work on the Companion this year.

    Seriously thank you to all the field editors and especially to Mrs. Gorp for the edition. It had to be a labor of love to do the work AND do a thruhike at the same time!!!!!

    What's with the ALDHA people anyway?

    Mrs Gorp does the editing for the Companion while hiking the AT and Simply Seeking coordinates the Gathering while hiking the CDT!

    Yup. I got an e-mail confirming that from the editor.

    HA HA HA, we're hikers first and foremost. Can't speak for Simply Seeking, but the rest of the stuff I do to give back to the Trail is just for FUN and personal satisfaction.

    If 2007 is half the improvement over 2006 that '06 was over '05, you should order a second printing now.
    Just hike.
