I am 36 miles from.Hot Springs which I think is in NC and only 310 miles from.Springer Mtn in Ga. May get there by the end of this month or God willing by end of first week of Sept. I plan on calling it quits there to focus on the most important thing; the fund raiser.

   Would love to get the thru hiker badge but at the end of the day it is secondary.I feel great. If I could meet the 40 year old David I think I could out hike him. I weigh around 187 at this point. Been in a lot of rain of late. Stopped at a hiker hostel in the middle of Nowhere TN to get out of it. Good thing I can speak "Good ol' Boy" lingo!
