Just to let all of you guys know we are finished hiking. During the last week of the journey, we climbed Bear Mt. which is only about 30-45 minutes from NYC. This Timber rattlesnake wanted Rebecca to cuddle up but we kept trucking after a quick photo. We got picked up on July 16th in Unionville, NJ. Not too exciting of a place and yet we met the mayor and were allowed to take a shower in his house (pic above). That was a blessing for us and my family who picked us up for it would have been a long and smelly 8 hr drive back to WV. On our last full day of hiking, we saw two sets of bears (mom and cub): once in the morning on the trail and the other set was leaving our tent site! Go figure, we were a little apprehensive sleeping that night. We had a fantastic trip and plan on hiking more of the trail again; however, it'll probably be a while before we get a chance again. The map above shows what we hiked this year and last and what is left. Thanks for keeping up with us on the trail. God blessed our time away and He took great care of us. God's blessings on you.

My husband is so jealous you did the AT. Currently our goal is to do that once our children are older. Glad you did it...I am sure it was a blessing. Sarah (Logsdon) Renoud
Happy-- Is that you?! Glad to know the Lord continues to bless you and your beautiful wife.
Swing by and say Hi sometime.

Awesome accomplishment. You make me jealous. Living in Faytown Arkansas right now. Think I have a friend from Fay who is going to visit your team on a short term basis in '08. It's a small world, but one long hike.

Heath--
I forgot to ask-- Did you ask the Mayor of Unionville if he'd seen the latest Star Wars movie? Just curious.

You guys are pimps. Did you guys solve any cosmic mysterys on the trail? Let the rest of humanity know if you did.
So...was the mayor waiting for you when you came out of the bush or what?? How did that happen?
Oh, Heath, did you pee at each trail marker????????
that's impressive man! I wish I had the time, the energy, and was in the physical shape to undertake such a hike. I bet you have some great pictures from the trip.
