Rhodo's Replacement

This pack is a perfect fit on Mom G. She will now officially be the go-to-hiker for uphills and rocky parts of the trail!

Thanks so much for coming to visit, Mom and Dad G. We had a terrific time. We entered the Shenandoahs today with full bellies and clean clothes, thanks to you!

  • Can't believe you're closing in on 900 miles! By the time you read this you may already be there...that is just awesome.

    Ron, you better start eating more...Geez...by the time you reach Pennsylvania you won't be known as the "Gentle Giant" anymore. We'll have to change your trail name to "Skin & Bones". LOL ;)

    Looks like you're motoring along and enjoying the scenery and good company along the way. Keep it up...and if the going gets rough...think about all that are wishing you well and pulling for you in spirit.

    Love to you!

  • Mom G. looks good in all the gear! I hear we are calling Kelly "Biscuit" now. It sounds like you both were ready for a hearty meal!

    We miss you and can't wait to see you in a few months.

  • Hey Guys, thanks for all the updates and notes. Living vicariously through your progress on the trail is great. I am so proud of you for doing this. Mrs. G. looks like a natural trail blazer!
