Geo: 31.3152, -85.8547We left Natchez and Mississippi and travelled across 2/3 of Alabama on Route 84. This is a state highway about 1/3 of the way up the state from the Gulf of Mexico.

Thought showing up in hiking boots, shorts and our one hiking shirt might be a bit tacky. My pants are four inches smaller in the waist than the last pair I bought before starting the hike. Still have not stepped on a scale, but this is a great indicator of the weight I have lost. My shirts have also dropped from XL to L. CC also bought smaller clothes than what she had before the hike.
