In response to some voicemails and emails, I just wanted to let everyone know that Long Time and I are a-ok. If you watch the weather channel it does appear that the entire southern half of the Appalachian Trail is in the thick of a band of pretty bad weather. There has been some wind and some thunder tonight, but so far our tent is dry and we’re tornado-free. We checked the local weather via iphone and this storm will be out of our area by 1am. Fyi, we’re about 2-3 miles north of Damascus, VA. We left town this evening to get a jump on a few miles and a few hikers. But thanks for your thoughts! We’re glad to have you out there keeping an eye on us!

Oh! I finally put up a gallery page – check it out! It’s called “click’s galleries.”
Hi Mel and Mike,
I’ts good to know you’re okay weather-wise. We’re under a tornado watch again until noon 4/28 and hopefully we will again be spared. Take care. Love, (Aunt) Susan
So glad to hear from you and that you are not in severe weather.
Happy Trails!

Hey yous guys – I called Mom/Grandma this morning and told her about your tornados posting and that they haven’t impacted you too much.
Will you please post your situations vis a vis the weather and your progress whenever possible? Mig – Mom doesn’t quite understand this trek of yours – and worries some. I’m glad to be able to set her mind at ease when we hear you’re fine.
I trust you’re getting your packages – yes, I do think I put mocha java in your latest one. Hope the apples arrived in good condition.
