We think of hikers as people who have a destination in mind, or at least motivation to move on. Occasionally we meet people who seem to just appear, and are not in the hiking mainstream. I remember meeting a frail-looking young man who was wrapped in a ragged poncho and was carrying a large roll of plastic. When I said good morning to him, he responded by asking me if I knew Jesus. I'm wondering how many other WhiteBlaze members have met someone "different" on the trail.
