Day Four and Five of the Appalachian Trail.

We rented a smelly hiker cabin on Blood Mountain for two days and the plan was to rest all day on day four and then on day five I was going to hike the 10.5 miles that John and I didn’t do while John hung out. My left knee was bothering me off and on all day on day four so I did some stretches, I iced it, and rested all day.

On the morning of day five I got ready to hike my first solo hike and since I wasn’t spending the night on trail I only had a very light backpack on. My knee was still bothering me a little but I thought once it warmed up I’d be okay. Unfortunately that was not the case. I only made it about 3/4 of a mile in before I decided to turn back. I called John to let him know to come pick me up. I’m glad I did because pretty soon I couldn’t bend my knee at all.

So we got back to the cabin and spent another day resting and icing. I knew I had a decision to make. John was leaving in the morning and my knee was not any better after two and half days of rest. I could find another place to stay and hope my knee got better and didn’t start bothering me again or I could listen to my body and just head home with John.

This was not an easy decision. This particular knee is commonly giving me issues when hiking so I knew it was a good possibility that it was going to keep giving me issues. On the other hand I had done so much planning for journey, was so looking forward to it, and hadn’t made it very far.

Ultimately I decided to head home. When I woke up this morning my knee was still bothering me so I decided to listen to my body. I am disappointed but I’m not unhappy about this decision. I’m so happy I tried and my adventures are definitely not over. I still need to finish hiking the 4000 footers in NH and we’ll definitely take some short backpacking trips and who knows maybe we’ll buy a house or a piece of land.

I will still be taking a little time off before I head back to work but I will be so happy to see all of my amazing clients.

Thank you all for being so supportive!!!!

Day three of the Appalachian Trail.

Not so beautiful weather today. We had some thunderstorms last night. The tent that I’m carrying is the perfect size if it’s just me but with both us it’s a snug fit. We can’t keep our packs inside with us so we have to put them in the small vestibule area. With the muddy ground and splash up our packs and tent were a mess the next morning. And let me tell you, having to get out of tent in the rain when you have too p*e in the woods…. not so much fun😂.

We met some younger people at this camp. A couple and another guy traveling alone. None of them had ever been backpacking before and John had to help them hang their bear bag.

I think one the best parts of hiking so far is meeting all the people. They’ve all been great and there’s this almost immediate camaraderie about being in this together.

We ended up only hiking for 6 miles because John’s knee had had enough and we didn’t want to push it. So we called a shuttle to pick us up at Woody Gap and take us to Neels Gap where our car was parked.

It was a little sad to get off trail a day early but it was also pretty nice to get a hotel and get clean😁. The weather is supposed to be raining for the next couple of days. We’re taking a zero ( a day without any hiking miles).

Day Two Appalachian Trail! Another beautiful day!! Another 11.5 mile day to Justice Creek campsite. We
met some great people on our first night and we’ve leap frogging with them all day. Some are thru hikers but most are section hikers. Our bodies are definitely feeling it. My feet are sore and John’s right knee has been giving him problems but it’s still quite beautiful out here.

Day One of the Appalachian trail. We had perfect weather for day one. It started out overcast but soon the sun came out and it was beautiful. In the 60’s with a nice breeze. We hiked just over 11 miles to Stover Creek shelter. The terrain was pretty nice. A lot easier then hiking in the white mountains especially with a full pack. Feeling pretty confident😁

ICELAND DAY NINE AND TEN ❤️❤️

Sorry there no pics for day nine. There was some severe weather in Iceland that day with extremely high winds. We were in one of the worst areas and ended having to pull at a small information building parking and hang out for 8 hours until it was safe enough to drive again. Our RV was rocking like crazy in the wind. It was quite scary. There was even some snow mixed in. All the mountains were snow capped after. We were told when we returned the RV that two other RVs got tipped over in the wind. It was no joke.

On our last day we woke up and headed the Blue Lagoon and was hailing out!!! Thankfully when we got there we got some mostly clear skies and had a pretty great two hour soak before heading to the airport. It’s been an amazing time but we are ready to be home!!!

ICELAND DAY THREE❤️❤️❤️

We were supposed to go on a glacier hike this day but it got canceled due to some severe weather they had the day before we arrived that washed out the access point. So bummed but still had a great day visiting the glacier lagoons and diamond beach. Black sand beaches are amazing!!

Last photo: our home away from home. We’ve had a lot of rain and cloud cover so having this RV has been the best decision ever!!!
