Hello to all,
3 1/3 mph is plenty fast for me on flat terrain and a 30 mph breeze gently
pushing me along.  I call it PARA-HIKING.
I sure hope Michael doesn't get any speeding tickets while on the trail???????
Some one told me the forest rangers some times set-up speed traps??????????
They wear camo's and blend right into the area.
What is the legal speed limit for the AT anyway???????????????
Use caution Michael.  Smokey is out there watching for reckless hikers going
at break neck speeds.
Take care,
John
