Well I begin the first legs of my travels tomorrow, and goodbyes have begun. While I acknowledge the apparent ridiculousness of the outfit below, you've got to hear the story. Upon telling McClain that I won't be able to wear my Papaw-Sweat's old cowboy hat on the trail, since my pack knocks it off with every step, he walked into the study and carried out this old Cincinnati Reds hat seen in the picture. It was his grandpa's hat, passed down to him, and that he wanted me to have it and walk the CWT and PCT in it. Micah then walked to his dresser and retrieved his burly lumberjack outfit from high school dodgeball. I don't know that I'll hike in the shorts, the size 28 waist shorts that cut off circulation, but the hat will be with me. I'll miss these guys a lot.
