It is Saturday and I haven't left yet. I won't go into too many details, but I have been tying up a lot of loose-ends and working on getting my car, a 1983 Porsche 944, ready to sell. Do you want to pick up a project car? This has been taking a lot of my time, but I am set to hit the trail tomorrow morning!One of those loose-ends was writing a mass-email to pretty much everybody that I know (at least everybody that I remember I know)... which took over two hours to do because I didn't have any email addresses stored in MD and ended up having to look up every single email address. If I forgot to include you, I am sorry! No offense intended! Well, maybe... just to you Andy! I just wasn't cut out to be a spammer.
My pack officially weighs 42 pounds at most (with two liters of water and about seven days worth of food on board). Without the food and water, the bag should be tipping the scales at about 26 pounds. Not too bad.

I was really excited to get the email and pleased to learn about the blog. I'm looking forward to following your trip! We hiked on sections of the Appalachian Trail during our trip to TN: it's truly amazing. BTW, I'm a fan of the "My Gear (For the Most Part)" list.
Cheers, Ereck
Dude, I think you should just take the Porsche with you on the trip. I mean, what greater test of your skills than seeing if you can drive a finely engineered automobile up a mountain?

Erk, I was pretty proud of the "My Gear" list... thanks for the appreciation! I don't know if I will make it to TN this round, but that's awesome you made it to the trail this summer! Say hey to Kenneth for me!
Phil, the thought crossed my mind... don't you worry, I thought long and hard about it. Then I realized that... well, you know.
Erika, when did I tell you that I would teach you how to drive stick? Did I REALLY???
Kari, I'll be home again soon! I will always show up eventually, due to hunger or homesickness!
