    NOBO? Great! I'll do 26 1/2 SOBO and therefore not have nearly the pressure on me that you will. By the way. I have no doubt you can do it in 26. 30 days is for slackers - no pun intended.

    Cool. Could you make me some wine while you're at it?
    Oh, and is that still considered fording? You know, technically.

    Has anyone considered a 60-day yo yo?

    Since I live in Maine, it strikes me a southbound would work best. Start on Katahdin June 1. Pick up my car and drive 150 miles to home on August 1. Does anyone know where I could park a car near Baxter for eight weeks?

    I'm sure I could do Maine twice in 60 days.

    People had your fun with him on the other thread. Why pick up on this thread now almost a month and a half later??
    Maybe the guy is just trying to get himself through a rough patch right now - Right or wrong, haven't we all become obsessed over doing something in our lives at one point or another.
    .....Someday, like many others who joined WB in the early years, I may dry up and dissapear....

    Default hey cowboy

    Carol and I from Prescott are leaving from Phoenix Feb.2 on a Greyhound to head for Springer to start hiking. You need to do this, not for your Mom but for yourself. "Put one foot in front of the other-repeat".
