Look out Whites, here we come....True to the Thru!!!!!

Wow, what a week, we finally made it to Caratunk, ME. Hendo got sick while on the trail, which delayed us again. But Hendo and Mom are both well and doing good now. Do to our delays, tomorrow Tues 30 Sept, we are getting a ride to Gorham, NH so we can hike the White Mountains of New Hampshire. The Whites are the hardest mountain range on the AT and if we delay our hike through them any longer, we will be shut out by winter weather. As for the rest of Maine and New Hampsire, we have enough time to complete them before winter sets in. Thanks again to everyone for your support and remember why we are doing this...to bring attention to the continuing suicide crisis amongst veterans and to raise support for Soldier Suicide. 22 veteran suicides a day is 22 too many!!!

Finally leaving Monson, ME for good

Hendo's sleeping pad is patched, Hendo's Mom is well, weather is sunny and dry....we are finally busting out of Monson and getting back on bgthe trail and heading south.  We should be in Stratton, ME in approximately 6 days.

Mom sick...still in Monson, ME

Mom has been battling a bug of some sort, diarhea and vomitting, no temperature though, the last 4 days.  She if finally feeling better and able to eat and drink again.  We are going to see how she feels in the morning and hopefully we can get back on the trail tomorrow, Thursday 18 Sept.
