Ryan called last evening to let us know that he was taking a down day. Not exactly sure where they are other than where they show up on the map. He said they all rented a cabin and were taking it easy. Everyone has mail drops at Fontana Dam and if they pushed on it would be Sunday when they arrived and the post office would be closed. They are making very good time. The two boys Ryan and I picked up in Gatlinburg to take back to the trail head were running almost 2 weeks behind where they are.
He continues to sound like he's having a great time. We worked out the next food drop. Sounds like he's getting tired of the freeze dried meals so he cut way back. He said they're finding other, cheaper and tastier ways to eat on the trail. He mentioned easy mac with a pack of tuna mixed in as a great option.
I got some of his pictures posted yesterday. Go into the file and pick slide show to get them at higher resolution. I also added excerpts from his Journal pages he sent home. Still having issues with the map locator. Looks like it will work best if only showing the last GPS check-ins.
Got a comment from Ollie (Bear Bait's) parents from Germany this morning. You can read it in the comments section.
