Well, I guess this is it. I finish packing tomorrow, fly Friday, and start walking north Saturday. I won't be on until August probably and then I have to focus on academics or I'm going to be in deep **** so this is probably it for me. I really don't expect to be back on again. I just wanted to say thanks for all the laughs and opportunities to waste time over the years and provide an ample distraction from my coursework.

To salvage the thread.....what are your plans for this summer?

Friday I start at the southern point and keep walking north until I run out of time. Later on, everybody!

This summer I'll be taking care of my aunt's newly-acquired horses and lifting weights in anticipation for next year's track season (I throw shot put and discus).

Where are my manners? Sorry. It's been fun posting with you for however long we've both been there. It sucks to see yet another level-headed, intelligent poster leave. I wish you the best in your walk and whatever else you may do.

Wow man, that's like halfway across the country. Good luck, hope that goes well for you. I could never do a walk that long... much less an entire province or state...

Good luck! That trail gets pretty rough towards the end. Don't you get a plaque or something if you make to the finish before winter?

Wow, I came in here expecting an account suicide full of porn.

But, seeing as it's not I'll wish you the best of luck on your journey and hope you have fun. As for me, I plan on interviewing for jobs in a couple of weeks so I'm pretty sure I'll be working for the summer. That and I'm going to join a gym, start working out, get ready for more college in the fall and just enjoy myself as much as I can.

Good luck with the trip. My plans are pretty much just game and get some exercise and increase my cardiovascular endurance. I hope I can get out more and possibly find a female companion but that is doubtful.

Wow, good luck on your hike. And it's never good to see good OTers leave.

My summer will be spent working, and by the pool with the gal.

I don't know maybe to accomplish something? I'm pretty sure he's a hiker so that could be a reason?

But On-Topic...I'm going on a cruise..probably getting a job...getting my license...going to the beach...party and hang with some friends. Have a safe walk!

I see that you are hiking the Appalachian Trail. Make sure that you stop in Duncannon, PA and get cheese fries at the Doyle Hotel(Its a stop on the trail that a lot of hikers go to). Their fries are delicious. Have fun and be safe!

Haha, No way! I have about 300 miles of the AT done right now, and I hit the Doyle last summer. Real nice place. I got there after a rainy day on the trail. Are you from there?

I don't live in Duncannon, but I live in the same county and I go there every once in a while. Oh and my great grandfather used to own the Doyle.

Do you ever go to www.trailspace.com or www.summitpost.org? Those are some good sites with good message boards for the outdoors. I thought I was the only one on here who was obsessed with video games and the outdoors.

No, but I'll check them out. Thanks. :)

I used to go to Backpacker.com but I've stuck with Whiteblaze recently because it's dedicated solely to the AT.

Yeah, as corny as it sounds, I'm more thankful for the opportunity to have a shot at this than anything else. I know plenty of people who have to wait until they're retired to even try and by then...it's just too late, other things have taken priority or they aren't physically capable.
