I am taking this moment to say a quick thank you to all who read and follow me. And a special thanks to all who have shared with me so that I could purchase the new ipad. Through your generosity I have been able to purchase it and have enough to stay a few nights in towns with internet. This will enable me to keep posting while on the PNT.

A young friend helped me set up the iPad and while she was doing so she insisted on getting me started on Instagram, so for anybody who has an Instagram account, you can find me at theMaryBadass. Sometimes I might be able to put up a short blurb there before I can get full blogs posted. I will post as often as possible on this trail which goes through towns with minimal cell service and limited electricity. It is the least I can do in return for your generosity. Blessings and happy hiking to us all!
