And away I go

I'm about to begin hiking the Long Trail in Vermont. A 272 mile hike along Vermont's ridge line stretching from Massachusetts to Canada. With any luck I should be finishing up on or around Aug 6, but since it is vacation I won't be rushing to keep to a schedule. If you want to come join me give me a call on my cell phone (look it up on facebook) and leave me a message. The rough plan (subject to change when I feel like it) is as follows. Wish me luck!
