    Oh yeah, congrats on that other thing too. What was it again...hiking 1,100 miles and reaching the half-way mark on the AT. Ehh, no big deal, right? Piece of cake. LOL!
    Wow, 1,100 miles! That IS a big deal! You're doing great! You should be so proud! I'm glad to see you so happy and enjoying being with your friends. I can imagine how your feet and legs must feel.

    Wow --- lots of nice shelters on the A.T. I live in Oregon and the PCT has none of that!!! Also, no real hiker hostels on the trail either! I think doing the A.T. is a much better "through hike' to start with.
    How are you doing physically? Have you gained/lost weight? Do you think you're stronger?
    Just keep on keepin' on, Ranger!!! XXX

      I think the terrain and "accessibility" is a lot tougher on the PCT and it's not really close to a lot of areas of population for much of it.
