Kathy and I got out and walked the boundary line of part of "our" section of AT lands.
One part, on the western side of a ridge, there was a tremendous amount of trees blown down with root balls and all.
There were so many that it changed the whole character of the area and making it hard to get through the area.
I didn't dress warm enough for the day and my hands were freezing by the time we finished, a 5 hour work day.
After finishing we drove over to Campmor. It was kind of sad to see what the store has become. The choice of items was limited, other items were deeply discounted and all departments were downsized. Also there wasn't a single bicycle in the place. I understand that because of Christmas the shelves might be bare, but this seemed like something more. There were still plenty of employees offering service and help in every department and they seemed to be in good cheer. I have no info about the future of the company, all I can say is that they've served many people well over a lot of years. Good luck Campmor.
The road to glory cannot be followed with much baggage.
