March 7, 2012

Yeah! He called. Sounds good. Telephoned from a hostel in Hot Springs, NC. Doing his laundry and planning to join the hostel owner for a vegetarian dinner. He is not with the group he was with a few days ago. He left them behind and expects to meet up with them again. There has not been service for his phone.
AT & T is not great apparently in NC. Verizon has better service.

Asked us to send his first package of goodies to the next hostel. He requested:

three AAA batteries
an orange bandana (safety color so hunters can spot him)
bagels (NY is the best)
Natural Chunky Peanut Butter
money
protein bars

He said he's hungry all the time. No matter what he eats, he burns it up. The trail has been strenuous
and challenging. He's lost 15 pounds. Expects to be in NC/TN for another week, then Virginia.
