I want to apologize ahead of time for my distraction. I have an addictive personality, so I tend to get obsessed with things that interest me. For the past three years, my obsession of choice has been wine making.
But with the decision to hike the Appalachian Trail next year, I'm getting distracted with all the reading I've been doing, particularly regarding gear options, food, trail life, etc.
I know I hold some responsibility for being a regular contributor to this site and all you wonderful folks over the past few years, so I ask your forgiveness ahead of time for being distracted over the next year or so. I have joined a few AT forums in order to learn more from those who have gone before me---just like here.
I plan to start a Facebook page (probably) where I will be able to give regular updates and pictures from my iPhone along the length of my walk. For those interested, I will give the details here as my departure date approaches, now set for early March 2015.
Thank you for your understanding, all. I'll still be checking in regularly until then, but if you have any direct questions for me regarding wine making, please send me a PM (or email) so I don't miss your posts.
