    . . . ummmm yeah Beater. Except that I caught your act in a few towns along the way. Entertaining as hell but the part about guilt by association. . . . . hmmm. I think your story is full of holes.

    Default Finished up...

    Since our names got mentioned, it should be said that Pi (me) and Laces finished up on 12/12. The last .9 from the road to Springer, we listed names of people we met along the way. There were more than we could say even doing that last mile as slowly as we did. Like that song Miss J played at Thanksgiving says, "the people are the trail."

    Hope any SOBOs behind us are staying warm. Anyone from AT06 thinking PCT08 yet?

    Default Thought I'd wiegh in

    Its Laces, checking in to say that yes indeed Pi and I finished up on the 12th. All of our dillydallying finally ended on the night of the 7th at Standing Indian shelter. It was really really cold and hence a motivator to get down to the end of the trail. Good luck to all Sobos still out there. ANd to those who've wieghed in on this thread, its great to see you pop up again.

    Hey, for the record, I wasn't among those sleeping in the hallway and puking in the garbage can.

    Actually Pi, yes I (Beater) have been thinking about it. Especially after reading the entire Yogi's pct book at Kincora.
    And since there's a limited window for the PCT, maybe I could keep up with you, seeing that consistent miles seem to be mandatory to avoid nasty weather.

    Default Pi, met you at Katahdin Peak

    Congratulations Pi and Laces. Pi, I met you at Katahdin Peak so it's nice to hear that you and Laces finished. I kept track of your register entries through Dalton, where I left the trail. You're actually in one of my Katahdin pictures - sitting behind th sign if you'd like a copy.
    Heading back out this June 1st from Katahdin - headed toward Springer - just happy to be on the trail.
    Good luck to both of you.

    Wasn't it peeing in the hallway and sleeping in the garbage can? Or was that Minutes?

    That's just shameful, you wouldn't see Chuck Norris crying on the privy would you?
    Did I congratulate you on your hike yet? PM me.

    Congratulations!

    I've been staying warm enough so far. I'll see how it goes after the Christmas break, when I do the Fontana-Springer bit.

    Endos (the hiker formerly known as Snapshot) is thinking of doing the PCT in '08.
    If not NOW, then WHEN?

    Thanks! I've been having a good time with it, except when the PocketMail acts up and loses the stuff I just spent an hour or more composing. Grrrrr.

    Thumbs up

    I've passed most of the SOBO's on the southern half of my NOBO flip-flop thru hike. I started in Springer on 10/18 and finished in Harper's Ferry on 12/22. If anyone is still trying to figure out where specific SOBO's are, just let me know who and I'll tell you where I last saw them. Lots of awesome people still on the trail.

    i was out hiking for a few days in georgia this past week and ran into two sobo's yesterday a mile or so south of dick's creek gap- mark and twain. they're a husband and wife team (i'd say in their sixties) who started south on august 1st and are hoping to finish this coming sunday or monday. really nice folks and a real pleasure to chat with.

    if anyone is around sunday or monday, you should head out and welcome them to springer....

    Default Congrats to Five Leaf Clover (Marta)

    I saw on trail journals that Five Leaf Clover finished her SOBO (or as she refered to it a time or two her SLOBO) yesterday. Three Cheers and Congrats to her.

    Mark 'N Twain should finish this weekend. Beater and Fishy T should be at the SoRuck this weekend, and will finish in a couple of weeks. I made it to Springer yesterday at 3:30.
