Here’s something I wasn’t going to tell you, but I will anyway. We crossed a railroad track between I-77 and Atkins, VA. I picked up a spike, and carried it (heavy!) all the way t Atkins, where I thought I’d mail it to you. The PO was too far away, so I decided I had to leave it. Oh, well. Sorry. It might have made a fine addition to your collection!
Yo, Click. You certainly have lived up to your hiking name. Keep up the beautiful clicks, Click.
Thanks! There is so much to click at and so little time in the day – especially when we want to get in the big miles. Can’t wait to have the time to sit down and really look at everything I’ve got!
CLICK IT UP BABY!!!! all the way!!
