First Journal Entry at Springer Mountain - Photo by Mark Calcagni

On May 10th of last year I set foot on the Appalachian Trail and began the journey of a lifetime. To mark the anniversary of that day, I shared the first chapter of the book, which will be out this fall.

If you missed it, stick around; it will return. I removed the link because my editor is doing an amazing job and what I shared earlier is no longer representative of the completed work. In other words, I answered the door with my hair all sideways and pillow lines on my face. Come back in a bit. I clean up real good.
