Almost time
I'm just a couple days away from heading out to my new home away from home on the Appalachian Trail (AT). The past couple of weeks have been a roller coaster trying to get all my loose ends tied up. Welcome to the latest one, so thank you for stopping by to visit my trail journal. Anyone who's ever lived can tell you that some things rarely go as planned. Two weeks ago I moved all my stuff into storage (thanks Jeff, Christy and Chris), but was hit with a cold trying to pack all my stuff. Proper perspective reminds me that I could have been moving the following weekend during the little snow fall. Better yet, I could have left for the trail when the white stuff was coming down and hit the trail in the Georgia downpours. But now, I'm excited that the temperature looks good and Springer fever is upon us.

The traveler sees what he sees, the tourist sees what he has come to see. The whole object of travel is not to set foot on foreign land; it is at last to set foot on one's own country as a foreign land. ~ G. K. Chesterton
