    Yeah, for sure! I'm doing Springer to Neels Gap this weekend, so that should help.

    Not this year, too much to do. But I am going on a section hike soon, so that helps.

    Springer Fever? oh yeah. Well maybe more like Katahdin Fever. I never imagined another thru hike.... Until last year when my husband said, "When I get out of the army I think we should thru hike southbound." Long story short, we start this July! All the old excitement and jitters are back and I am both loving and hating the anticipation. We are even thinking about the PCT for 2012....
