Unemployment - Pacific Crest Trail

Did you quit your job to hike? Are you unemployed now?

I’m barely employed. It kinda sucks. Prospects are bleak. I’m feeling useless. Why is hiking the only thing I’m any good at anymore?

Me too, I work part time for Weight Watchers. But I’m a retired school teacher. The Special Ed director asks a couple of times a year if I want to come back and I always say no. I took a leave from WW last year to hike, but only lasted 10 days in Maine… I’ll probably quit to head to VA to hike this year. I may not be great at hiking, but I love it anyway.

Red Hat: Keep us in mind for the VA section this year. We would love to hike with you. We figure Damascus on about March 3, Catawba for a zero or two about April 1, and Waynesboro on April 17. At least thats what our vague schedule calls for.

Piper: Are you the Piper who blazed thru Hot Springs to Erwin in April of 2005<

No, I’m the Piper who hiked the PCT this year to Dunsmuir.
