Further AT adventures.

Early Tuesday

I've switched my hours at work from 7:30 - 3:30 to 9 - 5, this is going to be a huge advantage as we go into the fall and winter as I'll be able to walk Holly in the mornings when it's light rather than in the dark after work :)

Another drizzly, cool day, I actually put on jeans and a rugger shirt! Raining gently and 65F.

I mentioned the AT to Jackie, and she actually suggested that I take a week and try doing a section :) I think it's a bit late in the year to do it this fall, but I very well might think about doing it in the spring!

Cooler and a bit drizzly, 68F. Maybe fall is actually upon us?

This is a dangerous book to listen to, I wonder if Kate would give me 6 months off to hike the AT?
