He's on the trail! Interesting things so far:
* Hiker Names-- they don't use their "real" names just "hiker names".... so far Hiker Gurl, "Grant" and a couple others are some of the "neatest" he has met. He asked us for suggestions. I said "Mountain Man" but I think he is gonna go with "Summers". :)
* Trail Magic - Boy was he excited!! Hiker clubs/groups will set up "trail magic" at entry points/road crossing on the AT. He ate two hamburgers, cookies, and the "best damn Coca-Cola" he has ever had! As you can imagine, he can't carry a whole lot of food so this was an awesome experience for him to have so much "good food" on the trail!
Couple of photos he sent:
