Beginning and an end

Within an hour of starting the hike and saying goodbye to Mother & crew, I had the biggest surprise: two thruhikers finishing their journey. I am so inspired by these two! Natalie and Briana started in June. Natalie worked in Alaska with my friends (from Camp McDowell in Alabama) Pecor and Kopnicky. I cannot even believe how small both the environmental education and trail worlds are. How unbelievable to have met these two. I have been smiling ever since.
