Appalachian Trail (AT)

I have always wanted to hike on the AT since I was a Cub Scout in second grade.  Last week I had the first opportunity in my life.  I was so excited that I was able to share it with Becky and the girls.
We went to Harper's Ferry, WV where the Potomac and Shenandoah rivers meet.  We started in town and hiked the trail to historic Harper's Ferry and across and then along the Potomac river.  Here is some pics:

Looking forward to going for an overnight backpack on the AT with Hope and Gracie this spring!
