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).

Azaleas blooming along the trail
We have started seeing azaleas blooming along the trail - orange flame azalea, white, and pink azaleas. Can't wait for the rhodadendrens to bloom!
White azaleas just outside of Erwin, TN
Unusually colored trilium - not sure what kind this is
Flame azalea - a bright spot on a gray day May 4th
