Oceanic Wilderness

Hug a tree! 2nd largest tree on the AT. The Eastern Continental Divide. Chris on McAfee Knob. Me on McAfee Knob. Ain’t no way I’m sitting on the edge! The Guillotine.

Our friends Meghan and Jesse came into town to see us yesterday. We had an awesome afternoon wandering around Harpers Ferry and eating lots of food. I wish we could have spent more time with them. Thanks you so much for lunch and for taking the time to come out and see us! I hope to see y’all in Texas when we get home!! You can check out Meghan’s page there on my side bar! She’s an awesome photographer!

Posting from the Bears Den hostel where we are taking an afternoon respite from the heat and the Rollercoaster of Northern Virginia. It’s like being thrown back into Georgia and seems to be Virginia’s way of saying “get the hell out of my state, you’ve been here for 500 + miles”. In a few more miles we’ll be in West Virginia and sometime after that we’ll be at 1,000 miles. Tomorrow morning we’ll roll into the mental halfway point of Harpers Ferry. The real halfway point is probably later this week in Pennsylvania. We’ve been pulling crazy miles lately; breezed through the Shenandoah in five days. I have a lot…

Misti’s brother here. She called me late this afternoon and wanted me to let everyone know that they are doing fine. Alive and well. They are in some town right now, but there is no computer access. They have had a rough last couple of days. Heading to Shenandoah National Park this week and are looking forward to blackberry milkshakes. Should be checking in at Harper’s Ferry. That is all.
