A Couple Days on the Trail

These pictures are a couple days mixed together. The big rock the kids are on is called Buzzard Rock.
On the AT it is custom for people to give you a trail name. The kids of course have been dying for theirs. Trey got his the other day from Cookie, a woman they met on the trail. It's "Tarzan" because he was swinging around from the rafters of one of the shelters.
They found a one eyed turtle and named it "Patch" and a Lizard named "Spots."
I hiked in to meet them today, only about 3 1/2 miles total but I wore Sam's pack on the way back and seemed to be ok. I'm going to do the same tomorrow. So hopefully the next town we are leaving from I will be able to join them.
