TWO ON THE TRAIL!!

Amtrak Train from D.C. to Harper's Ferry WV.  Ready to get on the trail.

Hannah and Silas will be walking together for the next couple of weeks



Hannah's first day on the Appalachian Train was a bit wet.


With a big family wedding date rapidly approaching and a Tropical Storm looming in the Gulf of Mexico, Hannah will be joining Silas on the Appalachian Trail. The dash to Harrisburg PA might be a wet one. They must get there to catch a flight to Chattanooga TN. Both of them are standing in the wedding so it is pretty important for them to show up. 
Good Times!

A little bit blurry and soggy but I can still make out the smiles. 
Good company makes the journey a joy no matter what the conditions. 


Here are the Numbers:


881.7 miles covered on foot
107.8 miles covered by canoe
5 states down 9 to go
57 days walking
5 days canoing
18 days resting
Total of 80 days on trail








A journey is a person in itself; no two are alike. And all plans, safeguards, policing, and coercion are fruitless. We find that after years of struggle that we do not take a trip; a trip takes us.
