[at-l] Hiking Families---

[GoVolsKelly at aol.com (GoVolsKelly@aol.com)]

Not only am I the only hiker in my very LARGE family, I'm the only person in 
a VERY LARGE city that likes to hike. And, like Anklebear, I got it from 
reading.  Maybe we should lobby government to make hiking books (or the British 
Gothic Novels) mandatory for students.
