O.K., I did 300 miles of the Appalachian Trail in the Spring of 2013. Now what am I doing? Travel when I can, and try to keep things operating on the home front.

I got up yesterday with sore throat but it is a little better today. Fig bars an Gatorade for lunch. V-I (ibuprofen) got me through the day. Leg muscles and feet hurting and hard to move around after sitting for a while. Learned that I had left one of my small stuff sacks at last shelter, it had my trash in it!
Hiked in the mid 70's today, seeing my first signs of spring, so removed vest an a base layer. Used StesdyState's roller for my legs, helped with the soreness!
