My darlin' daughter forgot to mention that you must like dogs...big dogs...who
will try to share your food and bed.  The sound of a ringing phone is pretty
constant here also, with a teenage girl around.  So bring ear plugs.  If you
get up during the night for any reason you will need your flashlight.  Our two
year old puts her toys in stategic places...but if you have successfully hiked
the rocks in PA this should not be a problem for you.  Oh...and one last
warning...I have a sister living here who never heard of hikers before moving
in with me.  When you get that creepy feeling that someone is staring at you,
ignore it.  She doesn't mean to be rude.  So if you want a break from the
peace and solitude of the trail, give us a call.  We offer slightly controlled
chaos, with lots of friendly trail magic mixed in.
