Silas wearing his "Trail Face"
As I have communicated with Silas over the past few weeks there are several things that I find amusing. One of these is the whole "Trail Name" thing. The Appalachian Trail Community of hikers are an interesting bunch. there exists one huge common denominator among them and that is the journey they are all on. Other than that they are a wild mix of personality, age, gender, background, and so forth. This thrown together tribe of wanders give each other names. You do not get to pick your name it is hung on you by your fellow travelers.
"People are given names based on how they are perceived on trail. If you snore, smell, or act out, you could be given a name for it."
Silas (Missionary)Here are a few that Silas has mentioned. Also some pictures of folks he has met. I'll let you try to put names to faces......... Duck Fart, Good Times, Yard Sale, Not Bad, Diesel, Tropical, Bear, Pigpen, Chicken, Honeybun, Twister, Twenty Three, Goddess, Sparkle Feet, Disciple, Lipstick,    |
