Note the discrepancy in pack size - my pack is the large blue EMS Trail 70 (70 liters) on the left, weighing in at almost 5 lbs. Mike's pack is the tiny ULA Circuit (42 liters) on the right, weighing a dinky 2.4 lbs.
The Plan: To thru-hike the Appalachian Trail. The AT is 2,167 miles, and passes through 14 states. The Reason: To live out our dream, to realize that life has more to offer than a 9 to 5 job, a paycheck, and a pile of bills. To "Balance" (Bonnie's Trail Name) our lives with no regrets. We have been asked: "Why do you want to hike the Appalachian Trail?" Answer: "Y-Knot" (Mike's Trail Name).

Can't wait :-)

I'm getting excited! I'm still laughing at Mike's 'dinky' pack. I'm sharing your blog with others, like me, who can vicariously enjoy your trek.
