At Neels Gap on the Appalachian Trail in Georgia

Hello everyone I only have a minute on the computer but I wanted to say thanks for everyone's comments. I wish I could reply to each of them directly but I am sharing this computer with 26 other people so I need to keep it short. All is well, weather is great, people are great, views are great. Good luck to everyone. UPDATED - We were part of an early group getting into Neels Gap and while they were very prepared with merchandise, their grocery items were pretty slim, and expensive. After walking in the snow and ice for a few days, everyone that did not have trekking poles purchased them at Neels Gap. I met Pirate, a legend on the trail, for the first time here and would see him another five or six times in towns further north. I also meet Jonathan and Maggie, two people I would hike with later on in my journey.

Macro Photography, Flowers

“We say we love flowers, yet we pluck them. We say we love trees, yet we cut them down. And people still wonder why some are afraid when told they are loved.” - Unknown I am going to miss taking photos of flowers this winter. I have started practicing indoor photography with a little DIY light box so I am guessing I will have to visit the florist this winter a few times at least. I am not exactly sure what these flowers are. I do know that they only bloom during the day.

Appalachian Trail in Georgia

Designed for. It is ok though, I will be in town in a few days and I will send somethings home. I ran into a guy today 63 years old with a 42 lb bag. He and I talked for a while because he was in the same situation I am in.... to heavy a bag. He wants to get his down to about 30lbs in next town. I just want to below the bags design wt-40lbs. I told him that I hope I am still able to do this at 63 and he replied with "I hope you are smarter than this at 63". I also ran into itrod again (he had ran out of water also. I have meet another hiker, chopper, and both yesterday and today he was just sitting in the middle of the trail. I guess he hikes till he worn out and instead of looking for a rock or log, he just flops right on the trail. I think I may have picked up my trail name today also....Mississippi. Well it is about my bedtime. Hope all of you are doing well. What Iearned today..that a 2 legged tripod not good. it broke today. the good news is it is 1/3 lighter.
