    Post The 'Sir Privywinks' site!

    Unwashed ladies and ill-shaven gentlemen,

    I am pleased to announce the grand opening of the Sir Privywinks photo dump! This site represents a profound, monumental, and breathtaking achievement the likes of which easily eclipses the fact that I threw the whole thing together in my basement over a lazy weekend.

    My new website, located at the cherry address of web.mac.com/setzer529 , contains every one of the over 2000 pictures I took while hiking the trail this year. Gasp at the horror of the time Golden Child stepped on a tent stake barefoot at Trail Days! Marvel at the dead moose carcass hidden 'somewhere' in Maine! And be awestruck by the spectacle of the privy in Woody Gap, GA which I most definitely did NOT sleep in!

    All your favorite characters are here, including Bigby, Big Shanty, Grizzle, Trailbait, Thumper, Golden Child, Golden Child's brother, Chach, Robo, Big Ol' Boy, Badger, Ronin, Ox, Circadian, Tortuga, Iceman (the original since whenever), Buttercup, The Michigan Wolverine, Smokestack, August, Usual Suspect, Church Mouse, Bytecode, Persistent, Alpine Strider, Binjali, Tater, Stitches, Candy Bar, Sudoku, Coldilocks, Fuzzy Monkey, C-Shot, that one guy who was already passed out at Traildays before 5 o'clock on Thursday, Keymaster, Almost Lucky, Dingo, GQ, Lightweight, Sideshow, Blackfoot, Melk, Luna, Leatherneck, Nobody, G, Kokopelli, Worldwide, Moosehead, Cul-de-sac, No Pain, Jake, Skip, and a whole bunch of other people I realize I'm no more inclined to write down than you probably are to read them.

    So please, do stop on by! If you have any feedback, ideas, pretty pictures of your own, or just want to keep in touch please PM me or drop me a line at [email protected]. Thanks!

    I like the shot of the Fox sniffing around your pack in Maine.

    From the angle of the shots it looks like he chased you up a tree.

    I still have that spoon. It has maneuvered many a delicious thing into my mouth, thank you.

    Hardly, if we even took one step towards him he'd take off like a shot into the woods. It was only through our patience, and Luna's incessant cooing at him as if he were one of her (many) cats, that he got as close as he did.

    Then he tried to steal one of my bags. Little punk.

    I didn't get to meet you but several names on your list I recognize. Met many of them on the last leg of the hike in Maine.

    Remember the Missouri Girl section hikers you met in North Carolina? I am one of them and we are in your pics too. You really liked the blonde one in our group...the one giving you the kiss...Michelle. I will let the gang know about your site as your pictures are really nice. Congrats on making it all the way!

    Oh, but the REAL question is - How does Michelle feel about me?

    Oh, and how did that wine turn out? Worth the effort of hauling it up a mountain?

    I was able to view all the GA pics before I went to bed last night. Very interesting; def makes me want to hike the AT at the soonest possibility.

    I'm looking forward to checking them out over the next few wks or so.

    Just wondering if you are going to caption them at all when you have time?

    At well over 2,000 images that would take a considerable amount of time and effort...

    So, to answer your question, maybe.

    Hey Privywinks -

    We only had to pay Michelle $10 to actually kiss you and another $5 for the pinch in the butt. What are friends for??

    Sir Privy, Rockhound here. long time no see. You realize the more you deny sleeping in a privy, the more I'm inclined to believe you did. I use you as an example as to why someone should choose their own trail name prior to hiking rather than have one given to them along the way. although I suppose there could be worse trail names. ie. cumspot
