On the ROAD in the Morning!!!!!

No pics today...we are leaving in the morning after dropping Toesocks car at my brother Dan's. We are headed first to Birmingham, Alabama to visit her sister there. We may camp at Cheaha State Park and climb Mt Cheaha which is the highest point in Alabama. Here is a short video of the park:http://www.outdooralabama.com/videos/index.cfm?movie=CheahaSP.flv
From there we plan to visit Mountain Crossing Outfitter in Georgia and see if Toesocks sandals from last years hike are hanging from the ceiling with the hundreds of other hiker's boots on display. It is also the only place on the entire 2175 mile AT where the official trail goes right through a building! http://www.mountaincrossings.com/index.asp?PageAction=COMPANY
After this stop we are on our way to visit Sunny and Share who we met on the AT last year and are now into an internship on an organic farm call Waterpenny Farm in Sperryville, Virginia:http://www.waterpennyfarm.com/
Then we plan to drop in on the ATC(http://www.appalachiantrail.org/site/c.mqLTIYOwGlF/b.4850633/k.9733/Interactive_Map.htm )
and do some trail magic/volunteer work in Harpers Ferry before heading to my sister Sue' in Trumbell Conn. where we will leave the car and get back on the trail to Katahdin! We will try and keep our Blog updated as we pass thru trail towns and include many pictures of the places and people we encounter along the way!
