[at-l] The Great Outdoors

[ATnavi@aol.com (ATnavi@aol.com)]

Sorry to get back online after 2 weeks away and discover the same political 
fusses and musses going on. How about some chatter about the Great Outdoors? 
Just returned from two weeks in Colorado, my first trip west, and I'm pumped. 
It was wonderful to be able to be outdoors EVERY DAY for 16 days instead of 
in the cubical I'm typically chained to these days. Once I get time-shifted 
and used to sea level again, I'll post some snippets on hikes out there, if 
y'all are interested. Did one short jaunt on the CDT and plenty of Natl 
Forest / Natl Park hikes, including a backpacking trip culminating in an 
overnighter at 2 miles high. 

Also participated in a mini-ruck in Boulder, nice to see Mags again and to 
meet Gu Girl for the first time (now expecting a Gu-ette), and to see Skeeter 
off on his 5-week hike of the Colorado Trail. I envy the man!

Cheers, Navigator
