[pct-l] The Herd is a FACT...

[Bill & Cathy Frenette]

Hi All  I was wondering how many SoCal section hikers actually help pay for 
the thru's that would not be able to go if it were some where up north? I 
section hike, but my plan for my thru hike is this. I retire December 30th 
2009 and plan to thru hike starting April 2nd of 2010. I will have my wife 
pick me up, where ever I'm at to go back to the kick off and then return 
after to where she picked me up. I will probably be hiking slower than most 
hikers so when will they catch me? Big Bear or Silverwood or Aqua Dulce who 
knows but I'm starting early to help spread it out but I'm only one, so does 
it mike a difference? Remember "Be Prepared" Ground Pounder Bill "Semper Fi" 
and
happy hiking.
