OK, so it’s stopped raining! We’ve enjoyed our zero days, dined on the cous cous with macadamia nuts and apricots, the chicken curry, some other chicken pasta thing, even the maple apple oatmeals and grits for breakfast, but honestly, wasn’t the point here the hiking thing? Why have I been […]

This is some fabu place in New Jersey I think run by the Appalachian Mountain Club and we were just lucky enough to find it late Saturday just as the next round of rain was setting in. Pretty much had the place to ourselves as we’re running back and forth […]
Unbelievable! That cat disappeared again. He’s all super meowing us in the morning to come and check out something he’s found after another rainy night in Casa Tent (yes, turns out cat paws do get muddy and track prints into the tent). So have to humor the Kismet cat and […]

In 2 weeks we (Judy & I, along with Kizmet the Cat) will be car tripping it over to the East Coast and hopping on the Appalachian Trail for a few months. We are not hiking the entire trail, only 500 or so of the 2200 miles of the trail. […]
