Inked In

Calendar is inked in!  Flight to ATL on 12MAR13 and reservations at the Hiker Hostel to begin my hike on the 13th.

I had planned to go to KY first, to visit family,  but decided to do that after a couple of months on the trail for a little rest and let everyone tell me how much I stink!

Backpack is getting organized and preloaded and weighed (shooting for sub 30, 35 will be the upper limit) to make sure everything fits and I can still lift  and carry it for 2200 miles.  I am hiking four miles every other day now for training and will step it up to every day with pack a week or so before heading out.
