Hmmm.....I'm due to retire in......26 years. I want to hike the
AT in the year 2021. I guess I need to start planning my strategy
now on how to convince my wife that a six-month stint on the AT is a
good idea. :-)
Be sure to keep us posted on your progress on the AT! "Trip
journals" are a great way for us to enjoy (vicariously) the AT
experience.
