Jun 17, 2022 : Pat & Paula Appalachian Trail

Virginia Creeper Trail

So what do three thru-hikers do on a zero day when there is a downhill bicycle trail to ride?  Well, you ride it of course.

Virginia Creeper Trail

The Virginia Creeper Trail is a 34-mile rail-trail that is considered one of the best bike trails in the nation. We concur.

Here is a white blaze we can definitely get behind.

Pat & Paula's Bio

Hi, Y'all! Our names are Pat and Paula, and we plan to hike the Appalachian Trail. We live in a small town in Florida. Not exactly fertile training ground for what has been described by some as a long, cold, rainy, mountainous six-month walk in the woods. That’s okay though because what we lack in experience, we make up for in enthusiasm and tenacity. Like the movie A Walk in the Woods, we are novices at this hiking/camping thing. Our hike may turn out to be more of a Road Runner/Wiley B Coyote cartoon than any hiking how-to or inspirational blog. Regardless, we look forward to sharing the many highs and lows of this adventure with you. Thank you for reading our blog. Until then, happy trails.

    Hi you two. So glad you’re back in the hiking boots, Yo, and Santa’s taking such good care of you. Just want to say your photos are great (one or more featured in each issue of Beach Buzz) and PLEASE keep taking pictures of buildings for future paintings. That red barn is way up there on my bucket list, the treehouse is right behind it. Safe travels. We all look forward to your next trailblazer report. xox
