So I was visiting a good friend over the weekend down in Atlanta, and
for the flight home, I was on a 767 that had been outfitted with video
monitors. One function of those monitors was tied to an onboard GPS
receiver that updated our location in realtime. As I was reading my
trail book du jour, "How to Hike the Appalachian Trail," I noticed that
the video monitor showed us directly over Amicalola Falls!
I had this sudden irrational urge to go find a parachute and begin my
hike a month early.
