From the Boundary Water Trip

"I feel like a changed man.  You might say born again.  I am filled with joy and gratitude.  I prayed with my wife this morning and we will be be making a daily habit of that.  She can already see the positivity and thankfulness oozing from me.  Thank you all for sharing your experiences in Christ.  Widens the perspective.  "

Weekend hike on the Appalachian Trail

October 24-26

 

3 days and 2 nights of backpack hiking and camping. We have done this for the past two years - hiking 30-40 miles and camping along the AT. We will likely start near Front Royal this year and continue hiking south.
