Pictures, etc

I do have Days 41-44 written out, but I forgot to actually bring them over to this, the posting computer, so they'll have to wait until next week. Until that time, I figured I'd ramble over a few different points of interest, and see if anyone bits.
Firstly: Thanks for sticking in there. It's been quite the long haul, and certainly took a bit longer than I had expected. Granted, it's my fault that it took this long, and I could have expedited the process, but thanks for hanging in there and reading with me. I'm sorry for those of you guys that've had to scroll through months of archives to actually start at the beginning. I guess it could have been written backwards, but that would have been...odd for me, so I didn't do it. Oh well.
Secondly: So, there are a lot of awesome pictures on here. I credit this to the surroundings, rather than the taker, but the surroundings more than compensate for the amateur status of Caleb and I. Anyway, if you (whomever you are) would like any of them, drop a comment or an email (those of you I know, I'm sure have my email, or a way of getting it or contacting me), and I'd be more than happy to send you an actual print of a few. I'm planning a poster for myself with a few of the 'panorama' shots in the Smokies, maybe a few other spots. So if there were a few you liked, feel free to ask.
Thirdly: Who wants to go hiking? I've been thinking a lot about this summer and what I'd like to do. The thought of a thru hike has flitted through my head with semi-regular persistence. The time to leave would be...well, right about now. So I'm casually entertaining the idea. Having a partner makes things fun. I've never gone solo, so I don't know how that would be. Caleb and I met a lot of people, so I don't think I would get terribly lonely, but I'm sure there would be stretches. Anyway, I'm toying with the idea. Casually.
Fourthly: I don't know why I'm making numbers/a bulleted list. It seemed like a good idea at the time.
This will probably stay up...at least a little while after day 44 and the autopsy of the trip go up. I'm thinking of putting Caleb, Josh, and I's other trips on here, including some of the climbing trips I've went on. Maybe it'll morph into my outdoors fun blog. That could be fun. So let me know, and in the meantime, maybe I'll go for a hike. It's staying lighter later, and the hiking itch has settled into my bones.
