Ah, Glasgow a fine town with reliable internet service! We are making our way through the longest state on the trail. We were told, "Virginia is flat", but i'm not sure how that rumor got started. Less than a hundred miles from Shenandoah National Park where we get to meet up with Kevin's family and hopefully "slackpack" as they call it for a few days! Can't wait to get there!
If you look close you can see kevin, twice.
Some trail names are a mystery, with "Torch" it's pretty clear.
The REI Shark Skin Jacket is modeled above compliments of Hoot, Half Elvis, and the Breeze.
This guy seemed to be lost on the trail.
Yes, Kevin and I still practice our Tree hugging. This oak is the largest on the southern portion of the AT (the largest being in NY)
We encountered many donkeys on our path this day, we may have gotten a little close though cause they tried to eat our hands.
Woo-hoo! 700 miles!
The most scenic view on the AT they say, McAfee's Knob. 
I've been waiting for this spot! Apparently, this area was used to film "Last of the Mohicans" and Daniel Day Lewis stood on the same knob. pretty cool.
Crossing the James River along the longest foot bridge on the AT.
Kevin's really building some muscle out here.
Look closely, we are in Glasgow, VA. Where men ride their lawn mowers down the street while barbarian women ride dinosaurs on the lawn.

Hey guys! Thanks for checking in - it is great to hear from you and see your pics. We saw the same donkeys and one of them almost bit a hole in Dustan's rain jacket. I find it increasingly hard to find the time and resources to update this blog with pics. We are back on the trail as of Friday May something - we're now in Daleville with The Thinker. We got here yesterday, swam in the pool, ate at Pizza Hut, did laundry (washed our socks twice) and we're going to head out today. We hope to catch you guys! 700 miles and counting, baby.
July is nearing which means I can see your beautiful faces soon!!!
whatzup!?!
correct - Virginia is not "flat" and those people should be punched in the kidney's. I got out yesterday - making my way into Harpers Ferry to sign the book. taking a zero today. You must be loving the heat and bugs as much as I. Pictures rock. let me know where you guys are - assuming you made up a lot of time through SNP with the slackpacking (and you didn't miss much - I was NOT impressed) WV looks just like Virginia. Peace out - Blaze
