Hiking Can Wait
Leaving the Florida Trail to chase down a lead on a new antique VW Westfalia camper, JK discovers it’s well worth the detour.
John versus the Flushmaster
Home repairs aren't as simple as they seem. We try to get our toilet under control before a major trip, and discover that modern plumbing parts just aren't what they used to be.
Taking on Chicago
When I look back at the plans we'd made to leave the Appalachian Trail for Chicago, I have to laugh. Sensory overload made for a shortened trip.
Reflections on a Not Quite Thru
Every day I find myself thinking about our time on the AT, slowly realizing how it has changed me and my views of the world.
Re-Entry
While our hike is over, the memories and feelings from special moments along it I will remember for the rest of my life.
Ears to the Ground
Our departure is soon! Putting everything in storage, we're camping out in Sandy's apartment with our AT gear.
Walking into Love
Having met while hiking around Lake Okeechobee this fall, we fell in love and decided to take on this shared dream of hiking the AT together.
