A few years ago, while on a streak of otherwise very interesting Bill Bryson books, I came across his then-newly-in-paperback A Walk in the Woods, and it sparked my interest in one day hiking the Appalachian Trail.

This has been a dream of mine for 30 years. Also to parachute from a plane. Guess I should hike the trail first. But now, I’m planning to take it a few weeks at a time, pick up the next year at the point of exit, and so on until the Trail is done.
Happy Trails!
