[at-l] Thru hikers and stuff

[DaRedhead@aol.com]

Well - what a fun filled weekend <g>.  I will avoid repeating details that 
will no doubt be repeated in KC's journal, such as the trip to the "Pizza Hut 
from Hell".  Then a pleasant night spent watching half naked hiker hunks in 
the hot tub, having a few cold ones ;) (It's a tough job, but someone's got 
to do it). Up early the next day to deliver them back to the Trail - Eagle, 
Falcon and Foodbag hit the Trail, Hound Dog was hanging out waiting for 
family to visit.  While dropping them off - presto! I ran into Baltimore Jack 
at Uncle Johnnys.  Happy, healthy and in very good spirits, doing excellent 
miles a day.  Around noon or so Quercus arrived.  We decided to have dinner 
at my house (KC, Amazon & Quercus) to avoid any possible jail time by dining 
again at a local establishment.  They didn't complain about the dogs, the two 
year old (Quercus even let her pick M&M's out of  his GORP), the aunt, the 
mess or the confusing fact that Toney was there, grilling steaks for them. (I 
think they all thought he was my brother or something before they found out 
he's the soon to be ex <g>)  A pleasant night with great company.  KC had the 
good sense to buy beer the day before, because they don't sell beer on 
Sundays, and I myself forgot that :)  I took KC and Amazon back to their 
hotel, and when I got home, I started smacking myself, I forgot to take pics! 
 Here I've gone thru two rolls of film in three days, and I forgot last 
night. (Of course, I may have gone overboard on the amount of pics I took at 
the hot tub <vbg>) I did get a picture of Baltimore Jack.  I will post a few 
when I get them back from development.

Does anyone still have a copy of the list of listers thru hiking this year?  
As far as I can tell, the ones still to arrive are Paddler, Bristlecone, 
Mara, Kinnicinick and Ken.  Eagle, KC and Quercus are accounted for.  Am I 
forgetting anyone? I thought there were more...
