Thanks Rovem. That is good info to know. I wish I was starting the week you were, but as it is, with all that has gone on for us lately, I will just be glad to get there at any time now. :)

Just found flights for $307 total for both of us....thinking that is the way to go and then use shuttle service. Thanks everyone...I'm sure you are going to see lots of my stupid panic questions over...

4shot...Thanks for that input. We have a lot of points for various things since my hubs travels for work weekly, and I have AAA to help take a little off too. I'm going to look at flight prices now,...

Phreak...you are MOST helpful!!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!! :)

Thanks Panzer...looks like the train is a win. The kid will be so happy, she was excited about riding the train. :)

Thanks, Bill, that's what I was thinking as well. Trying to find enough people willing to help with that would be near impossible. Alnother option is for me to rent a one way and turn it in in Maine...

Fabulous blog! I will be following your hike until we start our SOBO a month behind you...so leave good stuff in the shelter logs too, you crack me up! :) oops. I just did a smile, please no m/s.

Well, life sometimes happens in a way you don't expect and this year has been much of that. I am so behind in our gear buying and now due to family obligations, I am having to stretch our start time...

I'm thinking about going up there Monday for a night or two with the kids to see it. Were they still going strong, HooKooDooKu?

Morton's Nature's Seasons is my go-to for salt/pepper/garlic, etc. One bottle, all blended, we use it all the time at home and in the woods. :)

Great segment! So happy for you. :)

I would have done anything to have a dad like you around, but the leaders who head up our district make it very clear that they would never allow a male co-leader, even though yes, it is allowed....

No, they don't. The troop leader can do a family camping event and the dads and brothers can come then, but any other time it is women/girls only.

(I'm the troop leader for my 11 year old's troop...

Thank you, Blissful.

I hate that we missed it. Unfortunately we lost a family member yesterday, so I won't be able to make it today either. Glad to hear it was good! :)

As a wife, a mom of three and someone who enjoys her own time let me add to the general consensus of doing something nice for your wife. Your kids are still young, and women have a tendency to lose...

Thanks, Skooch! I have a collection of quotes that I have had since the 80s, lol. I used this one since it is one of the few I hadn't seen on here yet. ;)

Southern trout streams are great fishing but heavily monitored by rangers and you will get in some hot water if you're caught in their water fishing without one. My hubby and I were on the Tellico...

Becoming Odyssa is fabulous, I just became her friend on FB. lol :) I enjoyed On the Beaten Path as well, plus the Barefoot Sisters Southbound (haven't started the 2nd one yet) and just about every...

I don't know yet, although I would really like to. We have major renovations beginning at our house this week, so I don't know yet if I am going to be able to come up and spend the night or if I'll...

I have it. It was the first one I picked up when I decided I was definitely hiking thru this year. If you want, PM me your address and I'll mail you my gently loved copy. I think I've read it enough...

Their Facebook page seems better. http://www.facebook.com/pages/Dahlonega-Trail-Fest/147259828655158

The sites for the different activities are listed on the schedule. It looks like most is in Hancock Park. :)

I'm going, with my daughter (trail name, Pinky). She loves Dahlonega and any excuse to go there, so we'll definitely be there at least Saturday, maybe Sunday too. As excited as we are to experience...

I'm starting 7/7. You'll be a week ahead of me, so I will look forward to reading your entries in the register. :)

I know this sounds crazy, but if you have a Wii and the Fit board, you can use it to weight all sorts of stuff. My daughter uses it all the time to weigh things (including the cat, lol). It is very...
