It's awesome to see the joy in your eyes and voice. I love the fact that you are upbeat but not loud and crazy. I'm retiring in two years and already buying gear.

The last 2 or 3 years, I have picked at least 2 or 3 to follow on their journey. Some have made it, some didnt but all were interesting to follow. I love seeing how each one has a different perspective on the trail! Keep on going! One step at a time one mile at a time! Not a hiker myself but love encouraging others. You are doing fantastic!
