Hello, welcome to AT-l. I'm excited about your experience, to help the newer
hikers like myself. My name is Josh Wilkins and my fiancé is Amy Banka. We
currently planning to thru-hike the AT in 2003. I'm trying to keep the class
of 03 up to date and together a little bit. I will send you the smashmellows
as soon as RED sends them out :P
