Yeah, we went again and it was wonderful. The weather was a little colder. Saw a great sunset and brought my hubby this time. Am grounded, feels good.

Went backpacking, it was exhilarating. Loved being out in nature and getting exercise. Got some good pics. Can’t wait to go back and do it again.
I already have two camping trips (one to a music festival in WV, another to a beach) planned for 2008, but I’d also like to make sure I go backpacking again this year. I went in 2005 and 2006, but missed 2007. It’s a very freeing experience for me, and I need to make it more of a priority, even if it’s just a night or two.
After 15+ years, I went backpacking again. I’m older, heavier, and not as in good shape. But the gear is now lighter, plus I had trekking poles- which are really great! I had a great time, can’t wait to go again. And this time I’m going to start training for my next trip today!
I’m going for 4 days on the AT. I’m packed, I’m ready to go. I think it will take 4 days, but I’m taking enough food for an extra day in case I need it. I’m not going for a lot of milage, I just want to get back into this. My pack is so much lighter that when I did this in my 20’s. The new gear is really light, it is wonderful. I’m also going to try using treking poles this time.
