PostAt the Key Deer Wildlife Sanctuary we saw three key deer. We also saw a small heron (tricolor or little blue, not sue), an alligator, and chickens. We also stopped at the sea turtle rescue center and saw a number of turtules in rehab.appalachiantrailcafe.net/index…6e86849589379d2952af4482eappalachiantrailcafe.net/index…6e86849589379d2952af4482eappalachiantrailcafe.net/index…6e86849589379d2952af4482e

PostQuote from IMScotty: “Scott's Eclipse Plans: I've already let my students know that classes will be cancelled that day. This is my last shot at a total eclipse.... ” In a few years there will be one in Luxor Egypt. That would be cool.

PostThere is an eclipse thread on TOS. I posted the details on where to see it from the AT. whiteblaze.net/forum/showthrea…15&viewfull=1#post2304915 But given that BSP will be closed and hiking near the is a challenge in early April, and the high probability of cloudy skies, it's not a promising endeavor.

PostQuote from StalkingTortoise: “With the April 8th total eclipse rapidly approaching, I thought it would be helpful to post up important information related to the different types of eclipse events: 1. An eclipse of the sun happens when the moon passes between the sun and the earth. 2. An eclipse of the moon happens when the sun passes between the moon and the earth. 3. An eclipse of the earth happens when you put your hands over your eyes. 1 1. Weller, Tom (1985). Science Made Stupid. If you see …

PostQuote from Astro: “Could happen. Some thru hikers never see a real bear, but some other hiker they meet might have a Winnie with them. Like Pepe and various other "stuffed" hiking partners. ” I'm 2 for 3 for seeing real bears on AT hikes. Just lucky I guess. My only miss was the ivernight hike in 1968. But the SNP bear I use for my profile pic was pretty close to a teddy bear.

PostI finally got my average up to 80%. For a while it has said 80%, but it was rounding up. Today it's 80 % exactly.

PostQuote from Astro: “True/False and "near" make for a question being harder than it should be. ” When our daughter was in 5th grade, I was helping her with a science homework assignment. She asked me one of the true/fase Q's. I asked "Do you want the answer your teacher wants or the correct answer?".

Quote from LIhikers: “It's easier to ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission Other places on the AT consider you a thru hiker if you've hiked at least 50 miles before getting there, so maybe that would apply there too. ” That was my point. Places like BSP and GSMNP clearly define their rules that apply to long distance AT hikers.

An update: A scaley reptile just posted: ...While it is not exactly clear that it is official policy, please do not continue to suggest ways to "get around it" that are really just breaking the rules... Since I am the one most proficient at posting ways to "to get around" the rule, should I post my last good idea to get around the rule as a way to finally get permanent "secret double probation" from TOS?

I posted my suggestions on that thread. First, if they tell you you have to be a "thru hiker", just don't ask them what you have to be "thru hiking" I did a thru hike of Main Street of Hanover NH and Big Meadows in SNP. It's a low bar if you are good at crative rule interpretation. The other "out" i suggested is to say that you are doing a flip flop thru hike starting at that shelter. Since their interpretation of a thru hiker is one who INTENDS to hike the trail in on trip (not one who acctuall…

PostI've always wondered why refs insert themselves to try and stop altercations. I think it would be better to stand back and take notes. If both benches clear, you eject everyone, both teams forfeit.
