[pct-l] Speaking of Pirates

[Bob Sartini]

On the AT last year as I was going SOBO I met a couple of standard generic 
NOBO thruhikers. You all know what they look like. The told me how a few 
miles back at the Washington Monument in Maryland , they were chilling at 
the top of the monument's lookout. They could  see a family of mom, dad, and 
two preschoolers out for an afternoon in the park.  The children screaming 
gleefully and giggling climbed up the stars until they saw the SOBOS.... 
they screamed "Pirates" !!!
and ran back down in distress.
