Sorry for the delay in posting recently. I thought I had posted the previous 5 days of hiking, but it looks like a forgot to press the Publish button. Anyways here is a quick update. I am still at my parents and will probably be here through the weekend. My ankle is feeling great, but I was told to make sure to take a few weeks off before trying to hike again. While I’ve really enjoyed my time off trail, I really miss hiking every day.
I will probably take another 10 days off or so, then I am going to restart my hike where the trail crosses 522 just north of Shenandoah National Park. I figure I’ve hiked the park many times and can skip that part of the trail. I’ll try to hike the whole park this fall when I get back so that I can complete the whole trail in a calendar year.
I appreciate all the comments and hope that everyone is enjoying following me on my trip. I’m really having a great time, even on the days where I’m having problems. I’ve met so many wonderful people on the trail and don’t get me started on the great views. I wish my photos could do justice for what I see with my eyes.
Anyways I just wanted to give a quick update and let everyone know that I’m doing fine.
Chris

Glad to finally hear from
You. You had some of us including me who were really concerned. I assume somewhere along the way you injured your ankle. Hope it heals up so you can get back out there. I’m guess since your talking about completing the trail this Fall you’ll be delayed in
Coming back to work. That’s a bummer we really miss you.
