Hey Neo, What's up with this "hanging in the shelter" stuff??? Must be getting soft or something. Great pics and that looks like a really neat shelter. I'll have to take a look at that park. Any fishing there?

We did an overnighter on the AT Approach Trail to Springer and over to 3 Forks the weekend before Christmas. Froze some parts as it got to about 10 and wind chill was lower than that. Still had a great time.

When is next Nashville gathering?

Neo, I don'twant to venture too far off topic, but you mention that your friend had a hip replacement. The pictures of him (I am assuming the pictures are your friend) show him with a "Running Journal" hat and a running gear shirt of some sort. Is he able to run with his replaced hip? What's his age? These questions come from a person to whom running was one of life's greatest pleasures until aches and pains in the moving parts shut it down. Thanks.

Doug
