Reflections from June 30 – July 3

The actual mileage of the Appalachian Trail changes year to year, and sometimes even within the year!  This year's official mileage is 2,197 (point something) I believe.  I have officially hiked more than half of the Trail now!  My total number of miles remaining is still huge, but it's getting smaller every day and is finally less than what I have behind me.
