Encouraging words turned prophetic!

The beautiful and prophetic Lauren Hacker wished me off with:

"May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind be always at your back. May the sun shine warmly on your face.  Have an amazing journey my dear. I love you."

And so far, I have seen many a sunrise and sunset in addition to soaked up the rays on many a good rock. I've gotten myself sunburned on occasion too! The trial has risen up and supported sure footing and also tripped me many a time. Oh, and the wind! Buh, the wind! Let's just say the past few nights the springtime Gunny weather has found me in NC! 50s in the daytime, 20s at night... did I mention the wind? Gusty, multi-directional, unrelenting, and cold for 2.5days straight! No relief at night, either! Buh!

It HAS been a journey for every last one of the 118.6 miles hiked so far!

Lauren, you are a prophet, but I'm still waiting for the positive aspect of it being windy.
