skibum9995 hikes the AT

skibum9995 · Apr 14, 2008, 11:35 AM

I have made it just over 100 miles to Franklin, NC where I am spending the night tonight. It started snowing yesterday afternoon and is still snowing now, but nothing is accumulating. The Trail has been a ton of fun so far, having a blast.

Nice..are there internet cafes along the App Trail or are you posting from your IPhone..I would seriously join you for a day or two when you get to eastern Pennsylvania...and I'm sure other AZers would keep you company as well..I'm jealous that you can go so long without work or being in the rat race..
