| 13th July 2005 joyce appel and paul henry | Way to go! - From: The Mountain Looks like you are having fun. Well, keep it up and enjoy. |
| 11th July 2005 LInda Meyers | Wow! What a climb! - From: DRIVING THRU THE MOUNTAIN On first reading, I thought you climbed, as in hiked, from 4000 to 9000 feet in an hour, and I was not surprised since I know you guys are in the greatest of shape. Nevertheless, it did seem nearly impossible. On second reading, I guess you aren't quite Supermen. . .! The photos are spectacular, worthy of framing! It must have been eerie alone in a campground without anyone around. Being a city girl, that thought alone frightens me, without even mentioning snakes and bears. Keep writing! I love to read your blogs! Love, Linda |
| 8th July 2005 Allan | NCT - From: DRIVING THRU THE MOUNTAIN Haven't been able to get in touch with Warren Smith. He must be away. Are you still going to send a newsletter. If you give me some ideas I will write it up. "You must be the change you wish to see in the world" Gandhi |

| 2nd July 2005 iva doll | Grits? - From: CLOSER ENCOUNTER OF THE THIRD KIND Wow, cool hike! Can you elaborate, and this will sound silly, on what grits are? I always thought they were potatoes, hashbrown type things, but a fella from Tennessee that I recently met has said that Grits are Grits, not potatoes, but won`t elaborate. How would you describe grits? ivadoll (ivajan@yahoo.com) |
