The Sunshine State.

New Jersey. Been pretty sunny the last couple of days. Got into the high 80’s yesterday which means a lot of water drinking. Still knocking out those miles and moving on up. Spent a couple of days with Dynamite and last night I stayed with Don Juan and Master Alex (a quebecois) in a church hostel here in Vernon. Going to be in Fort Montgomery on the 30th.

Been seeing snakes everyday (non poisonous) and also the ticks are out. Saw my first fox yesterday as well. Just finished resupplying and we are about to head back out to the trail. Pretty short and boring update but I’m on dial up so my patience is thin. Hope all is well with everyone and you’ll hear from me further up the trail.

Keep putting one foot in front of the other. Be careful of those ticks. I discovered that I had Lyme Disease by the time I reached Hanover NH. Good Luck Brother, DaleAmerica AT02 Lilburn,Ga

Minivan/Trill,
Even though you may think you were “unlucky” to see the Copperhead and have it strike at you…how many people get to tell that awesome story? Well, I’m planning on sending you something on your next maildrop. Tell Strides I say hello. Well, have fun and keep us posted on your progress. Oh! I’m glad to see that your “spirit” is doing better since the last time we spoke!!!

Hey bud, just wanted to let you know that I am still tracking you and your epic and now somewhat more lonely quest to Maine. If you can, try to hit up the Jersey Shores while you are out that way. I’m sure that beard would go over nicely, along with the smell. And if it starts raining again, just remember Mary Mountain!

Hello Trill,

Amazing copperhead snake encounter on May 21st!! I hope you don’t mind but I included your link in Dynamite’s trail journal since you two were hiking together that day. Enjoy your new socks and congratulations for making it through Pennsylvania. Katahdin is just around the corner!

Happy trails,
Dynamite’s mom
