Well Jordan and I have spent the last day here in Gatlinburg, TN, prepping for the kickoff of Keep America Beautiful's Great American Clean-Up for Sevier county! It was a rainy two days, to say the least, and we definitely got even more opportunities to test our raingear...as if a dreary week in the Smokies wasn't enough?!
We LOVED the whole crew, especially our new buddy Jennifer and her fabulous dog Quentin! We hope you enjoyed the interview! :) We thoroughly enjoyed the R&R that Gatlinburg provided us...and we won't complain about the overabundance of doughnuts and junk food, either!
We also want to give a big HOWDY (I think they probably say that here, right?) to our fun new friends at Smoky Mountain Outfitters, Lee and Phillip...your store rocks! Thanks for the good conversation and insider tips...your insight is invaluable! Also want to make sure we thank our very favorite Trail Angels, Dad Franko and Son Franko...we would never have made it to Gatlinburg without your help! You are both awesome, and good luck to Son Franko on the PCT; you are going to take that Trail by storm!
Once we headed out of that crazy not-so-little town and back up the mountain, it felt like home sweet home again! We strapped on our packs, commemorated making it to the Tennessee-North Carolina border at Newfound Gap with a quick picture and went on our way through the rest of the Smokies...here we go again!
