[at-l] Record straight

As the resident knower of all, the man that ate goat cheese and Oxicontin on Rainbow Ledges. The man that set Blue Mtn shelter on fire, the guy that stomped on a mouse in Virginia and seen where God visited the long trail, I hereby absolve you of all guilt and will have it known from this day forward that you have advanced to the status of a true blue blazer.  We are few, enjoy the honor and peace that comes with knowing you are who you are.

I am mortified.  About mid-day today I realized that I misrepresented my hike in my comments yesterday.  I need to set it straight.  I said:
 
 "I took the purist route, as best I could.  I hiked past every white blaze, carrying my pack."
 
The reality is that twice I took a blue blaze.  One was at the rock wall on the north side of the lemon squeezer in NY, I could not climb that wall no matter how hard I tried.  After some time of trying I took the "easy way" painted in blue of course.  The second time was on my second to last day, in Baxter Park.  There was no getting across that river, we walked a long way up the bank but couldn't find a way across.  There was just too much water for me to try it.  
 
Both of these events are clearly told in my journal, yet for some reaon I forgot about them last night.  I'm really embarrassed that I told you that my hike was something it was not and I apologize for that.  
 
Cody
