Trail Talkin': Harpers Ferry, Route 66, snakes and LOTS of photos!

Dad and his two hiking buddies are headed toward Harpers Ferry (see photos of the town below). They have to be back in Boston this weekend and have offered to take Dad to Delaware Water Gap. From there, he will visit a friend of ours parents who live in the area and will resupply on food, etc. From there, he plans to continue to head north for a while. He doesn't think time wise he can get to Maine, but he is moving north and sure is enjoying this journey :) (not sure when he will see DC.... )

Tidbits...

* Another rattlesnake... he about stepped on it trying to take a picture... (but yet... a few days later... see what you spy in the photo below on trail...)

* He was very impressed with a couple of the hostels in the past two weeks...

* First bear sighting was in this area but it was running and he couldn't catch a photo

* An area called the "roller-coaster" was a challenge this week... it is continual ascends and descends..

Be sure to browse through all the photos and captions :)
