We hit the border on the 28. The next day was our last on the trail. The experience was harrowing and majestic. We got snowed on and rained on. The sun came out and warmed our spirits. We doubled back from the border and received goodbye hugs from most of our loved ones from the last 1000 miles of trail.
Details are too much work and we must rest. We remain in Portland the next few days to begin the transition back to civilization.
We have taken over 5000 pictures. Expect a preliminary posting of them soon.
I am chipping away at end-of-trail details and hope to have us caught up with words back to Skykomish by the end of this week. Pictures will come afterwards once we are in Colorado again ~ so I wouldn't get TOO excited until the middle of the month for visuals. It is very exciting to have a keyboard to compose on and I'm eager to have this blog become a rich journal of our adventure! :)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! I am so happy that you guys made it through it all. I hope the transition is a relatively easy one.
