Quote from Drybones: “Quote from hikerboy: “Quote from WanderingStovie: “Most people would agree that murder, bodily harm, and theft are not good. So no, it is not all good. We disagree on why evil exists. I believe evil began when pride caused an angel to rebel against our Creator. That angel (the devil) persuaded other angels and the first humans to also rebel. After that rebellion, all our righteousness has been as filthy rags, and we have lost fellowship with our Creator. We are all traitors…

This is a pretty cool article about the movie's character and Strayed herself. http://m.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2014/12/wild-is-a-deeper-smarter-weepy-tale-of-triumph/383437/

JJ's all about trail magic off the trail! What a cool offer.

God I love food. Munchies are the devil...the good kind of devil.

I did this yesterday...this plus some fudgy chocolate crinkles! Baking is a hobby of mine.

Quote from TrafficJam: “If anyone's considering this hike, don't let me scare you...it's really not that tough. It was tough for me for different reasons but most of ya'll have hiked much more difficult trails. :)” There aren't many people, and even fewer women, who have the balls to hike a new trail and spend several days and nights in the woods alone. I think it's awesome!

He definitely has a fun writing style that makes for an enjoyable read, and I enjoyed all the detailed "tangents" he went on describing the trail and towns (but you guys mentioned above that some of these are inaccurate?? In what ways?) Admittedly, it took me longer to get through this one than my other reads though. It was good, but I enjoyed Awol's and Wild more.

I liked Awol's book a lot, but I honestly enjoyed Wild more. I think it had to do with how much I was able to identify with Cheryl Strayed, but in my opinion, Awol's book beat "A Walk in the Woods" hands-down. Gotta admire someone who can ignore pain and keep walking like he did.

I thought Cheryl Strayed had quite an entertaining writing style! I've read her book twice. I really identified with her in many ways.

Quote from TrafficJam: “[q There is a fine line between tenacious and stupid and I get a little too close to stupid sometimes. ” Whatever. Girl, you're badass. We're all humans which means we're all "close to stupid sometimes", some of us more than others. We usually have to do things wrong so that we can figure out how to do 'em right. I'm enjoying reading your trip report!

I recently got a badass light-as-hell alcohol stove in the mail from JimmyJam! Pretty psyched to play with that bad boy! (the stove, not Jimmy

Thanks for wanting to read it.

My pup likes to kayak too.

Cool of you to do that for me.

I'll gladly paypal you shipping.

Quote from jimmyjam: “Free. It's a cat can stove. Weighs about 4 grams maybe. Burns Yellow Heet gasoline antifreeze or other alcohol. This stove works well with wide bottom pots such as the kmart grease pot or titan kettle. Boils 2 cups water in about 6 minutes with 1 oz of alcohol.” Well cool! I'd definitely love to try it out.

Toli, where did you live in Ga? I don't know much about kayaks as I usually rent mine, but I LOVE kayaking! I'm considering some aqua hiking when I get to NOC. Dmax, sounds like you and your wife have a blast!
