Indeed, I am. Though I wouldn't put myself in the
ranks of the true long-distance hiker, dedicated Trail
Angel or Trail Crew volunteer, I definately feel
closer to those involved in the hiker community as a
whole and my level of stink this past summer
certainly, I feel, attested, at least partly, to that.
 Shooting this last one was even more fun than the
first and, who knows, maybe one day, I may even try an
entire state.  


Thanks to everyone for the kind words...really
appreciate it.
