[pct-l] Hiker Trash Thanks

[Edward Anderson]

Hi Scott and All,
 
We enjoyed double family Turkey Days. I want to thank the PCTA staff and all of the many volunteers that help to make the PCT such a wonderful route for both hikers and equestrians to travel. The Angels that I have met also have my thanks. And I am thankful for the "trail magic" that seems to happen just when you need it. I experienced that several times during my journey on the PCT. Magic!
 
Jereen and I enjoyed our visit with you, Scott. We want to return to re-visit the John Muir Home. You are fortunate to live so near. Thanks for letting me try out your awesome backpack. It felt comfortable with the 37 pounds total. I will need to get my base weight down so I can carry enough food. When you average only about 9 mpd, of course you need to carry more food. I will be fishing and looking for mushrooms and other plants that I am familiar with. I will not need to carry as much water as I usually do, since water is so abundant in the Sierra.

Subject: [pct-l] Hiker Trash Thanks
 
As I'm about to sit down to one hell of a big turkey dinner and a lovely
bunch of friends and family, I realized that I'm also grateful for the
wonderful Hiker Trash friends and family on this forum.  Some of you I've
met and hiked with, and some I have yet to meet face to face, but have
still grown to know through this new medium.  Hey, I'm an old guy and still
impressed by the Internet.

So, thanks for being out there, for participating and sharing your
questions and incredible answers.  As I've found on trail, we are a rare
bunch, and there's a lot to be thankful for in this crew.

Thanks to you all,

Shroomer
