I know you get a bit anxious when you don't hear from them on regular basis as before.<br />Loner is fine I am sure & he is very excited to reach the end<br />Yep, hikers sure do get skinny and mangy looking. When I saw Rayo's summit picture on his blog, standing proud & naked behind the sign it broke my heart how thin he looked, like a flag pole!!<br />He was down almost 30 pounds which he couldn't afford. Don't worry though once they finish and get home the weight goes back on easy. They eat every thing in sight...fresh fruit and vegetables were his favorite as he got sick of the trail food at the end.<br />Celebration will be in order before you know it for Loner!!!Pattihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13239127604835375457noreply@blogger.com
