Moved to the Blogging World

Well, I moved to the blogging world. I’m going to give this a whirl. Nothing too fancy. Again, its probably going to be just me reading my own stuff but that’s the fun of it for me. I’m willing to bet that theres at least one other person in this world that’s as interested in the Appalachian Trail as I am. The chances of them stumbling onto this blog are slim but you never know. Plus, I would like to start adding some other topics as well. Whatever I feel like.

By the way, who invented the word “Blogging?” That kind of stuff seems funny to me. I don’t know why but it just does.

Anyways, I want to know a couple of things. I want to know if people think the idea of writing a journal from now until the end of my trip is interesting? Like I have stated before I can find a million journals of the AT hiker while they are on the trail but you very rarely if ever see a complete journal. What led someone to take such a drastic journey? What were their thoughts? I want to chronicle mine. I honestly think that my children will one day find this very interesting much like how I find Civil War diaries very interesting. Maybe it’ll also prove or disprove that I am insane for wanting to do this. Anyways, I want this to be a fun thing.

The second thing I truly want to know is what inspires other people. I know what inspires me..the mountains, being outside, God. What inspires others? If you’re reading this please give me an honest answer. I thinks its quite interesting as to what drives others or what their dreams are. Why haven’t you gone after your dreams? Lemme know.
