Delayed already!

Alas, a setback already!  But just a small one.  I need a few extra days to finish building a show I am working on so I have to push my start date back until March 6.  Just a small delay.  I am still eager and exited to get started!

Day: -10  Miles: 0  Trip: 0

To better keep track of my posts and progress on the trail I am going to add a small tag line to the top of each post.  I will format it like this: Day: XX  Miles:  XX   Trip: XX.   Day for day number (today is -10)  Miles for the number of miles completed for the day and Trip for the total miles so far.

Ten days to go!

Ten days until my official start date!  I am starting to get real exited about starting the trip.  I need to make sure everything is taken care of here at home so that I can start out without feeling like I have left things undone.   I would not be able to do this trip without the blessing and loving support of Mary.  I truly owe her quite a bit for helping me live out this quest.  I still have a few last things to put together until I have my official gear squared away.  Gear lists and videos abound for the AT and I will make the obligatory video when I have everything finalized.
