Follow Our Paths in 2016


This snap of my brother, Mike, from a day hike we made in 2013 turns out to be a harbinger of something much bigger. In 2016 Mike intends to hike the entire Appalachian Trail. His mission is to raise awareness for PTSD veterans. He is campaigning for a non profit, Warrior Hike.org.
    If your life has been touched by a veteran’s- and really, isn’t that
 all of us?-  please join the journey. Mike, a Vietnam vet who turns 70
 in 2016, starts his story at walkingoffthewar.org
    Over 40 years ago I hiked the southern half of the Appalachian Trail. Mike’s trek will be completely different in motivation, equipment, strategy and length. And totally the same in its capacity for inevitable transformation. My challenge is to support and accompany him as creatively and authentically as I can. You can come along.
