Via cell phone...Sean and Mark are at Neels Gap, say the hiking is "like climbing Chick Hill." Very graded and gradual. No blisters, shelters are crowded with both people and mice; the "Mouse Olympics" were in full swing. Putting up the tent in 30 MPH winds was exciting. Received 1/2 inch of snow and around 2 inches of rain. Mark says "I brought too much food." (Can that possibly be true?!) Sean's comment, " Despite my best efforts I have not lost Dad yet." He tried to lose him at Logan Airport, but Mark had merely been taken aside to having his pack emptied and searched for contraband. As a result the dangerous Peanut Butter was confiscated. Now it's 30 miles to town, where they will log on and write more.

Hey hiking guys-we are blowing away here in Orono/Old Town. Keep looking North and walk tall and with efficient strides.
Hey guys you are looking good. I hope the weather starts to chage for you and it gets warmer. We are having a lot of rain and even thought the temp is 40 the air is cold and damp. Look forward to your next blog. Fred Jamison
