Appalachian Trail 2017

Growth.

September 18, 2017December 27, 2017 izzyandozzy

It has been 21 days since I have been home. 21 days. I figured it was time to write a follow up post about being back home and adjusting to the "real world"... Difficult.

August 31, 2017December 28, 2017 izzyandozzy

August 29, 2017 7:24 PM Day 151 This morning I woke up and had a sorrow feeling creeping around in my stomach. I quickly pushed it away. No Stop, I don't want to do this. I woke up earlier than expected... I get the chance to sleep in and naturally can't. Luckily Alex was awake… Continue reading Day 151: A Day Full of Tears.

August 28, 2017December 28, 2017 izzyandozzy

August 25, 2017 8:30 PM Total Miles: 2159 Day 146 Finally! A good nights rest. I woke up this morning to Woodpile thrashing about at 6:00 sharp. What is this fool doing?!

August 23, 2017 7:19 PM Total Miles: 2113 Day 144 Shuttle back to trail and our first sign is for the 100 mile wilderness. We all laughed at the sign that said we needed 10 days of food. For section hikers maybe but we planned for five maybe six days, (lord I couldn't imagine packing… Continue reading Day 145: The 100 Mile Wilderness.
