James Michael FullerAt age fifty-five, Jim sets out on his first attempt to hike the Appalachian Trail. It is now or never time. Eighteen-hundred and thirty-five miles later, he pulls up with what would turn out to be a stress fracture in his right ankle. Age sixty rolls around and so does the pandemic. Jim and his wife, Deb, have way too much time on their hands. Jimmy Buffett's old concerts are playing on Margaritaville TV. Jim hears about the Eastern Continental Trail and in October of 2020, Jim and Deb set out on a planned one-year, 5,400-mile hike from Key West, Florida to the Gaspé Peninsula in Québec. He couldn't write about it directly. But he could write this. Jim's Daily Hike-Ku and Deb's blog about their thru-hike can be found at https: //boomerhikers.com. Read More Read Less
