You guys are looking great. At least for the camera(lol). Keep up the pace. Baxter State Park is nearing your sites. Heading there later this week. Lots of day hikes to take in but will surely hit the AT for some ventures! Ill send some encouragement vibes for the both of you down the AT. Can you feel it?!!!! All our best.

hey 15% boys,
i really liked what your Mom wrote and i don't doubt her understanding of you guys for a minute.
hope you got the GU. i probably should have mentioned this in the note, but you just tear the top off and eat it out of the package. like you would eat tooth paste. let me know if you like it and i'll send more.

What's up guys.....
I'm sorry I missed your phone call a month or two back... I tried calling back at 10 that night and then I was going to call the next day.. and then the next day.... and all of a sudden it's been like a week and the I was like ahhhh man I'm not going to call now it's been too late... I think you mentioned you were hanging out with slackamus at the time.
As the trail is coming to an end for me (I've got a little over 200 miles left) I can't help but look back on the whole Go-Dat crew days and I must say that I miss it...
I'm having an absolute Blast right now though and I hope you are as well.
Peace

Hey Guys..... it's Mom & Dad... just letting you know that you WILL make it !!!! I know that for sure !!!! I know My Boys !!! I'm sure it won't be easy but most things in life aren't .... at least the ones that are worth it ..... right??
Sooo sorry that we have missed the phone calls.... but, as you both know, we have been "hiking" in the NC & Virginia mountains for the month of July.... NO... not your kind of hiking ... but ... pretty good for 60 plus years....
We are now back at home....
We love you & think of you both ALL the time.... a "Mom Thing"...

Hey Trinket & Q-Tip,
You guys are awesome!!! Everytime I view your pictures/videos you have posted they make me tear up. It's truly an amazing experience. Like some other posters have commented, you two are only 15% of the ones that will actually complete the entire journey of the AT. You guys ROCK!!! Keep going, your on the home stretch!! Thanks for sharing all the great pics!! They are out of this world. I bet you could write a book!! Hey, Why Not?
God Bless YOU BOTH!! Katy
