Re: [at-l] Thanksgiving on the trail

Thanksgiving Day on the trail during my 1999 hike wasn't a memorable one
food wise. Can't remember what I had for lunch but it was probably some
Cheese Danish Pastry Swirls. I love those things!

Dinner was at Shoney's in Hiawassee. Nothing special either.

I have spent 4 or 5 Thanksgiving Days on the trail and the only one that I
can remember as being a  feast was at Roaring Fork Shelter. My wife and I
walked in about 12:30 after having a stormy and cold night on Bluff
Mountain. Shortly after we arrived it began to rain and we spent the
afternoon eating and dozing. I don't remember what we ate but it was good
and it wasn't typical trail food.

In hiking there is no special recognition given for speed, style or
finesse. There are only those that do the hike and those that don't.
