Almost Done....

I'm excited to tell you that I have a date to climb Mt. Katahdin, the northern terminus of the AT!  We (there are now five of us) expect to summit on
Wed., Sept. 7 with a rain date of Thurs., Sept. 8.  I have a one-way plane ticket from Bangor, ME to Cleveland, OH for Fri., Sept. 9.

    I guess you can start to see the "summit through the trees". What an extraordinary trip. To think you told me about it in May 2010, and now it is coming to the end. Besides rest, what is next on your agenda? Maybe Mt. Everest ?????

    Awesome! I mean really AWESOME! I cannot imagine what you have experienced, but the other posts express my thoughts. I am absolutely delighted to know that your sponsors will soon be making their donations for this monumental accomplishment. When you have time to come down from all of this, I would love to discuss with you an interview I am working on for publication and perhaps you would be interested??
    Best Regards, Cindy Angell

    One small step of faith, led to one giant imprint on the lives of many! Thank you Bob for allowing us to live the trek in our minds, while you weathered the trek on your feet. I imagine we all would have wanted to be there along your side as you lived out what many of us only dream about. I am looking forward to reading the book...or at least sitting down for some coffee, pictures, and great conversation!
    God speed to the finish.

    Bob! I am so excited you are on the last part of your journey. Mt. Katahdin is a great climb and the view at the top is breathtaking. Ed and I wish you a happy journey. Wish we could be there with you when you get to Baxter's Peak. Thank you for being such an inspiration to so many! Hope to hear from you when you get back to Ohio. Peace and love, Holly & Ed
