21APRIL

Hey everyone!

After a month on the trail, an a lot of time to think, I've decided that the AT is not where I need, or want to be right now. I'm posting this from a greyhound station as I wait for my bus home. I will be moving back to Portland where I plan on getting back to work and school. I know now that I can handle hiking the AT physically, but mentally and emotionally it can take a toll being out there alone for weeks or months. The Appalachian trail will be there in the future if and when the opportunity arises! And maybe then I can bring along my best friend. I made tons of interesting individuals that I'll probably remember forever, and seen quite a few awe inspiring views! I may even figure out how to post pictures to this blog to share them.
