Even though you stopped short of your goal, still an admirable accomplishment. Go back and finish it some other time, there is some great scenery in the New England sections.

Default Hey Gary

Hey Gary
There will be another day. It's best to be safer than sorry especially concerning an infection. Hope to see you in Baltimore if you make it? I really enjoyed our fairly long conversation with Corey (near the snack areas) at the last National.

I spoke to Gary a couple of days ago and he sounded in good spirits and proud of his accomplishment...I couldn't even drive 1250 miles!

I used to know a gal a long time ago who tried to walk from the Mexican border to the Canadian line along the Sierra and Cascades. She had to abandon her attempt about 80 miles shy of British Columbia. Her knee gave out; she just couldn't go on. No shame. I'm an old Sierra backpacker myself. I know what twenty or thirty miles of rugged trails under a heavy load does to a body. 1250 miles! Good lord, man! I tip my hat to you.

Still, a wonderful attempt. You made it much farther then a vast majority who actually attempt it.

I will be up hiking all around Acadia National Park in Maine near the end of next month, but will be spoiled by the knowledge I will be crawling into a nice warm bed in a comfortable rental house at the end of every day.

How has this thread gone on this long without a South Carolina Governor joke?
