  Ladies and Gentlemen and Boys and Girls of all ages. My through hike  is 
still almost a year away,(next April) but to get a fix that might hold me 
over I have managed to conive enough time to section hike some of the trail 
in August and September. AUGUST and SEPTEMBER!!!! yee gods. Or is that Oh 
God? I am planning the hike from Hot Springs,to wherever, thirty (30) to 
forty (40) days north. Question? What can I expect for weather, do I need my 
forty (40) degree sleeping bag? Will there be Skeeters? If I recall, North 
Carolina,Tennessee and Virginia are HOT and MUGGY that time of the year. But 
those memories are blurred by my mis-spent youth.   Question? What does <g> 
mean, or stand for?  Question? Just what should my wardrobe be that time of 
year? Do I need a Fleece,Polar-tec Jacket for cool evenings? Anything other 
than Cool Max T's, Shorts,  Smartwool Socks, Rain Jacket and Pants? 
Question? Five days out of Hot Springs N.C. to Erwin Tn. (my plan) Then 
where would be my next re-supply point to Buy or Mail Drop?  I need your 
Help......Please be kind.
