Since I was a kid I have always loved camping as I got older and got married me and my wife always enjoyed primative camping over any other camping. When our parnets would "camp" with an RV we would always say that is not camping. Well a few years ago we got into walking trails at state parks and that became our preferance in chosing a park then we decided to hike overnight trip in Michigans UP with only two backpacks a tent, two wallyworld sleeping bags and other supplies and enjoyed it more thanany other camping experiance ever.
Well now that I am back in GA and the AT is so close and I have camped there a couple times this year and doing a thru hike of the AT has become an OBSESSION.
AM I CRAZY BECAUSE ...............................
Everyday I think about it.
Everyday I look for videos or pics of others doing it and all I can think is that they a lucky SOB's.
I look at people's trip journals and photos in order to live vicariously through thier experiance.
Last but not least is it crazy to think in one year I can hike the AT with the only experiance thus far being a weekend trip. (not meaning I am not going to go on trips this summer and fall to the AT because I am so close)
