    Was all set to start 1 April 2011, then developed a herniated disc. Am fine now and have nothing to do but get ready for next year. Gear is bought and mail drops are packed and addressed.

    haven't decided which way yet; northbound would be the most climatic way, but southbound is intriguing.

    no approach trail

    Trail Name: Button
    Direction: NOBO
    Estimated Start Date: 15th March 2012 (could be a day or two earlier)
    Approach Trail: Still deciding but leaning towards yes

    Any additional info that you want the world to know:

    1. I walk slow - so wave as you pass me by
    2. I'm from the UK (mostly) so will be oohing and ahhing at big sceneries we don't have over here - feel free to shake you head in dismay at the silly tourist.
    3. I don't seem to produce my own body heat, so don't be surprised to see me in a down jacket in the height of summer!

    See you on the trail!

    12 miles east of Tampa. Hudson is up by Port Richey, so I'm about 30 miles south-east of you.

    Wait, wait, wait!! I thought only us Amur-cans can make fun of each other's accents and origins!

    Does being born in England over Texas soil make me English?

    I see the 2012 Dahlonega Trail Fest is set for March 16-18 ... May want to adjust our start date a bit for that?

    With the English, Welsh, Scottish and Irish all in such close proximity, how can you NOT make fun of each other?

    And I'm sure we can let you into the Brit club - 'Honorary Member'

    Default ADDON to previous posting

    Approach trail yes.

    I previously hiked from springer to Damascus about 35 years ago and want to do it all from start to finish, also the approach trail again. Wife seems to think I should go so we shall see.
