ReplyDeleteWhat's up kids? It was your 5th wedding anniversary day when you met Chewy (Nate), the AMC Ridgerunner, and I outside at a cafe in Salisbury, CT. We hope you had a romantic dinner and pleasant stay that night.
Chewy is still on the trails in CT. This is his last week, and I'll be out to hike with him on his final leg.
It's great to see that you two are doing well and going strong on the AT! I'll be sure to let Nate know. All the best! ROCK ON!
Hugs,
Erin
Dude, congratulations! You guys are stone cold crazy super hikers. I thought I would do a 2174.8 mile tour of LA to get to know the town a little better, but still stay local in case something goes wrong. I'm thinking I'll start in a outwardly spiraling walking path from downtown and then back track in a zig-zag pattern. I'll need custom clothing advice from the master - lightweight yet bullet-resistant. You two are more than welcome to join this epic journey.
