[at-l] Top 10 things about Ga. Ruck
Just got back from Ga. Ruck. Had a blast. I am surprised to see that
Orangebug is still alive. Man he has an understanding wife. Would like to
say thank you to all the people that disregarded two years of thoughtful
purchases and tuckerized my pack. I don't know who Tucker is but my knees
thank him too. They took out 8lbs. 12 oz. and added 1 lb. 2 oz. including
the snickers bars Nimblewill Nomad gave me. I don't know how much weight in
pride they removed but know I have a full load of appreciation to carry with
me and more knowledge as well.
I would like to thank Ken and Lee I Joe for adjusting my pack and being
with me on my first AT hike. These are two guys that I met Friday night and
by Saturday noon they were fixing my pack and were genuinely concerned about
my well being. Plainly put---These are good folks. I wish them nothing but
$900.00 days :>))
