Exhausted at the End of the Trail

Reached Springer Mountain yesterday and officially finished the AT.

What a trip!






Haven't written an article to celebrate. Rather, I've given a lot of thought about where to go next.

My first inkling is to try Yellowstone during the winter months. The solitude would provide plenty of impetus to write a bunch of "Get Rid of ... " articles.

We'll see, but for now, we rest!

Crazed By Gnats at Blood Mountain GA

Even the gnats could not bother me at Blood Mountain. Incredible sunset for Skip and me. We'll be finishing up early next week.

I really thought we had seen the last of the gnats, but they really were out in full force.

Gnats are something everyone would be glad to be rid of. I wrote Get Rid of Gnats and included some instructions for building your own gnat trap.

I'll have to try it myself when/if I ever settle back down.

Till next time, may you have a pest free day!

Got the Hiccups at Dicks Creek Gap

Rolled through Dicks Creek Gap yesterday. Getting near the end of the trail!

Had a bad case of the hiccups. Probably from drinking water too fast.

The hiccups lasted for awhile.

They were kind of fun, actually.

Had a lot of fun writing Get Rid of Hiccups.

Enjoy the "hic" read. Boo!

Contemplating Stomach Fat at Standing Indian, NC

Spent a lovely time in the Standing Indian Basin, Nantahala National Forest, North Carolina.

One of the peaks surrounding the basin is known as Big Butt. I never had a problem with my butt being to big. However, I used to have quite the gut on me.

No big belly for me anymore, brother. Walking for months on end will do that for you.

I wrote Get Rid of Stomach Fat in honor of my long lost blubber. Hope you enjoy the read as much as I have enjoyed slimming down.

Happy hiking to all,

Ted
