| It is not always oatmeal and ramen noodles...... Silas has been making great progress since the wedding in Chattanooga! He has left Pennsylvania, now known as "Rocksylvania" due to the rocky trails. While cutting through New Jersey Silas spent some time relaxing on the Jersey Shore Beach and unrelaxing on Times Square in New York City. The center section of the Appalachian Trail is a mix of scenic countryside and small towns with some easy access to major cities. Enjoy the pizza, surf and cities Silas! The White Mountains, 100 mile wilderness and Many tough climbs are looming on your horizon!  Silas was very excited to see the mileage left to Mt. Katahdin drop below 1000. As usual I have included a few pictures Silas has sent of the wide variety of terrain along the Appalachian Trail.       Silas has hiked over 1300 miles since April 1st. He has set foot in 9 States and tried to eat pizza in each one. He has crossed rivers, climbed peaks, dipped his toe in the Atlantic and kissed a wild pony. Silas hopes to climb to the top of Mount Katahdin in Maine before the end of September and end his trek along the Appalachian Trail. Godspeed Silas! I will join you soon for a spell. Third boxcar, midnight train, destination, Bangor, Maine. Old worn out clothes and shoes, I don't pay no union dues, I smoke old stogies I have found short, but not too big around I'm a man of means by no means, king of the road. Roger Miller |
