got all these pictures today! and a text.... "heading out from gooch mountain. got our bootie kicked yesterday." and later this text.., "stayed last night in gooch gap. staying tonight in lance creek. good day. church group fed us breakfast and a man had sandwiches, chips, and gatorade at a road crossing. he did the trail a few years back and does this every year for thru hikers. big climb tomorrow over blood mountain."
i talked with carrie today and we agree that it is neat to see the unique ways folks minister to hikers. so many ways to be a blessing to others. nice to see smurf and toby on the receiving end of these acts of kindness. the second picture had the caption of 'we meet rainer 'frodo boggins'. Lord of the Rings fans might see the resemblance.
