Just wanted to send out a short update. Michael called today from above Hot Springs, NC. He is doing great. He was lying beside a stream looking at the blue sky. He said they have met some great people.
Branden was a little behind him. He was walking with a man and his daughter that are from New Hampshire. Michael hopes I get to meet them this week. Michael said they could easily have walked into town today. They have walked 274 miles, averaging 13 miles per day. Amy and I are meeting them there tomorrow. Our friends from Georgia, John and Chandra, are also meeting us there. The guys may already be there. I am looking forward to seeing them and excited about our big hike. Wish me luck. I will send out a big update when I return in a week. I hope we have good weather. Take care, Sheila Wee
