Still alive!

Sorry the blogs have been so sparse lately! I've been having a lot of fun out on the trail lately and it's been difficult to distance myself from it enough to make the time to blog. I've been hiking with 3 other ladies for a few weeks now and I'm so ridiculously grateful for both their company and adventurous spirits. 
Hiking with them has turned it from being all about the miles to more about the smiles. We've been to the Jersey Shore, NYC, and went rock climbing recently. There have been a few more tavern visits since I've had their company too ( ;




For our next trail excursion we're going kayaking when my mum comes and visits shortly in Vermont! Tomorrow will be our last day of hiking in Massachusetts. From there only 3 states left; Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine. 

I'm really excited to hike through New England, but a bit nervous about some of the elevation gains and losses coming up. We haven't had to hike anything over 4000 feet since central Virginia. The hiking has been going pretty well lately, although my right foot has been giving me some trouble. I stepped down on some rocks funny and tweaked it a couple weeks ago and it's taken a bit longer to recover than I would like. But I think it's on the mend. 

Life is good and I'm having the adventure of a lifetime. Thanks for the support y'all!

  1. So glad you're alive, well and truly alive! That sounds like a good motto for life as well as the Trail, "It's about the smiles, not the miles."
