I feel like if you ever come out west, we should go backpacking together. Open invitation.
I didn't find any thru hikers on the AT this week, just people with too much shiny gear, no pot for them.
I did see Amish backpackers, 2 young couples with their infant, ash strip backpacks, bonnets, straw hats and beards.
They were awesome, don't see that ever. Old order Amish, no buttons or zippers

We've got 4 communities here now, they are coming from all over the country and settling in.
They like the gravel roads, cheap land, but the vistas from their patch of land is very important as well, spiritually.
Had only 2 electrified and industrialized neighbors when I lived between Langston and Stanton. The Amish brought me compost and spread it for the kids to borrow the cheap Huffy mountain bikes and a few beers. I had to promise to never tell the wife. And never. Her bread was on another level.

They would walk in a blizzard to help you out. Treat them well.

Family in LA. The swamp state, Not city. Mad props and respect to Troy and Bruce from my limited viewing. And in awe of Shelby Stenga. A shout to "Willie" and "Tyler". R.I.P..
