Well gang, here we are, on top of beautiful McAfee Knob at mile 700 and I have to say: it feels good! We're moving right along and are now about one-third of the way to Maine....if you can believe it! (most times, we can't!) Since we're sitting here enjoying the gorgeously sunny day, relaxing and eating homemade goodies, we wanted to take a quick moment to say thank you to everyone who's sent goodies, well wishes, and prayers.
So here it is: thank you! You have all been fabulous and really give us the motivation and inspiration to keep on keepin' on! Especially the folks at Keep America Beautiful (Rob Wallace is our hero) who believe in our green dream and our family and friends....Kelly Grant among the top of that list for her great postcards, packages, yummy food, and just plain awesomeness! (Larry, don't worry, you're next on our list of "can you pretty pretty please send homemade goodies before we pass out or start stealing cookies from other hikers" list! :))
A special thanks this week to Jordan's wonderful mom, whose continual support and care packages keep us from going hungry or crazy and to a certain Jennifer Wise for her absolute uncanny ability to follow directions while simultaneously being awesome! Also a big virtual hug and thank you to my amazing big sister for never saying no to the many favors we ask and for taking time out of her busy schedule and marathon training (congrats on the big finish!) to send copious amounts of dehydrated meals (we know they aren't cheap), cookies, and music (I'm loving the 80's!). I love you!
For those of you feeling a little left out ("but I want my name in a blog, too!) and are just dying to send us a little love on the Trail in baked goods form, send us an email and we'll let you know what we're craving and how to get it to us. ;)
