Zero Miles

If you have followed this blog for any length of time you will recognize several common themes. One of them being everything seems to workout. Last night we were not too thrilled to have to travel so far from the trail and to take a zero due to weather.  It because of those issues I was available to receive contact from home that my dad was still not doing well. 

Dad was still in the hospital from his health issues a couple weeks ago. My siblings thought I should come home. So that's what we did. Shortcake, Batman, and I packed up our gear and headed north to Maine to see my dad. 

There is a time to hike and a time to tend to priorities. I need to see my dad and so we did. 

Happy Hiking.
