8:00 pm here, just finishing dinner and for the first time ever, we're not synchronizing our schedules to talk before we go to sleep. There's a strange void in my night. Know that I'm thinking about you and miss you fiercely. Sleep well and have a dynamite day tomorrow! (Haha!) ;) I love you! (Sorry for the mush everyone! -- love you too and happy travels!, haha!)

For: TJ

Hi babe! I miss you!! Hope you had an incredible day on the trail today. I have great news, I finished all of my expense reports!! I know, I should reward myself with something nice-- I was thinking the same thing! Sending good vibes to the group-- frantically thinking about you!! Stay safe and warm!! All the best, love you TJ!

For: curt

Miss you so much! Make sure to take lots of pictures and stay safe. Hope you all are having a fantastic time. Bring home some potatoes!!

For: Beej

BEEJ!!!!!! We miss you. We've been teaching like crazy and it's been a bore without you, it looks like you are having a blast. I've decided to write you two more Haikus to keep you focused and inspired. :-) #1 One less turtle here You are Michaelangelo Because YOU are funny #2 What are you eating? Are they making you cookies? Please find me some bears.

For: harry

OK. I see you and I believe. I'll think of you while I am walking the flat towpath.

I just told KT you were eating Guinea Pig and she is more than a little grossed out since she had a couple of them. If you tell her Dachshunds we may have to switch gyms :) Sounds like an awesome adventure thankfully you have beer! Can't wait for the next update -

For: Torey & TJ

Sounds like it's still going great! Jealous of all your food related adventures, you know how I feel about a new snack! Torey, we have a half day in the books at Congress and I'm sitting down to a 'World-Class Office Manager' seminar. I figure I could probably teach this one ;) Safe travels!!

For: Soha and Beej

Have enjoyable time. Since two sisters are together doing the adventure it will be more fun. Take care. All well in DC and MD. Craziness of Mr. Trump is in news all time.

For: Raj

For: Mike

Dad have fun on the hike and be safe. It sounds awesome minus eating the alpaca. I wish I was with you. Love you!

For: Tor and TJ

Good morning guys,hope you slept well and are rested for the next 4 days!I have been texting you back,but I guess you haven't gotten them.I've gotten all yours and it is great to hear from you.Your menu sounds a little different from the Ale House and Mighty Taco,but maybe if the alpaca and guinea pig are really good you could have John add it to the menu:).Tor,Shelby is still looking for you and waiting for you to come home.Happy and safe travels to you and the group. Love Sharon and Jacquie
