Hello, journey and japhy -
ReplyDeleteThis is Linda, who gave you the lift down from Clingman's Dome to Newfound Pass that morning. I waited till I saw someone giving you the lift down to Gatlinburg, and hoped you would have a good day of eating and resting there.
I see by your facebook account that you are doing well, and have been thru Hot Springs and Erwin! Good going! You are only one day behind Balance and Y-Not [my daughter and son-in-law]. I told them about you, so they will be on the lookout.
Best wishes to you both!
