An Appalachian Thru HikeArchive for Post-Hike
GA 2 ME In 20 Min
So, it has been a few months since we finished our hike. It is nice to be back with family and friends as well as making that thing called money. Looking at the pictures and memories of our journey can certainly make me miss the call of the woods, but it is re-assuring knowing that there are plenty more adventures to come. Charlotte and I will be getting married next September which is pretty awesome. Especially, because I know that she will be right there next to me for every adventure that comes our way. We’re already talking about doing a 20-30 day hike on the John Muir trail out west. I have heard this is absolutely spectacular. Can’t wait! Oh, and you all will be coming with so no worries.
Anyways, I recently put together a video of our hike and added it to youtube for you all to enjoy. You can find the video here so enjoy and have a very Merry Christmas.
Lovin’ Life
8-29-11 Trails End
So, the adventure is over and I’m heading home. We were supposed to fly out on Sunday, but who would have known Maine was going to get hit by a hurricane. Now I sit here in the airport awaiting my flight back to reality. It took 141 days to walk from Georiga to Maine and it will take 3 hours to get back to Florida. It’s hard to think that about 5 months ago I was sitting before the southern terminus wondering what the miles would bring. Now I know. They brought pain, anguish, discomfort, but more than anything pure amazement and beauty. The one thing that made hiking the Appalachian Trail a truly amazing experience were the people and the kindness that the trail brings out in the people. I want to thank everyone that was a part of my adventure and made the trail a life changing experience. To everyone that followed our adventure and provided their support. To everyone that encouraged us to keep walking when the days were long and dark. To everyone that reached out that reached out and gave when no one asked for giving. And more than anything to everyone that simply followed the adventure through this blog. I really enjoyed taking you along with me as it kept me going knowing that so many looked forward to my ranting and raving. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart.
Now one adventure ends as a new one begins. Unfortunately, this adventure is my life and there will be no blog. Now you will all be a part of the adventure and a part of my life. As always you can rest assured and know that I’m Loving Life.
Leak Out!
