2013 ECSR

Andrew and I went through Damascus Tuesday and it was like a ghost town.  Very small-town and nice.  I'd like to bring him back sometime for the Trail Days.

(I just got home today; John & I went to Baltimore Saturday, visited our friend Sunday, drove back today so he could do his 3 job interviews.  800 miles on the bike, 1,500 miles in the car.  Dan, should I tell him "Chicken" for you next time I talk to him?) 

Horrible about the accident.

There's a lot of overlap these days between the "hippie" look and the and "hiker" look because there's a lot of overlap between people who hike in the woods and people who identify as "hippies."   Kind of how "deadheads" look a lot like "hippies" because, well, they are the same people a lot of the time.   I'm not sure if people who go out walking in the woods for a whole day in the other kind of special clothes, the brown and green clothes that look like the clothes soldiers wear, are also "hikers," or if they call themselves something else.
