The May Hike, and update in plans
Well, if you hadn't noticed, the journal concept has taken a turn. This was originally where I was going to try and write about my experiences in New Hampshire...it has now become dedicated (2 years later!) to hiking and trail climbing and to my greatest adventure yet--a 3-day stint on the M&M to raise funds for Cystic Fibrosis.
Likewise, my plans for the trail hike--coming up in May, by the way--have also changed a bit. A couple weeks' ago, there was a body found in Westfield by a set of railroad tracks. On looking it up online, these are the same tracks that run underneath Rt 90, at the crossing between Sections 3 and 4, originally the first two sections of my hike. Well, unsure of where the case in Westfield is leading, I have decided to change up the walk a little bit--better safe than sorry. I will now be covering 5 sections (as opposed to 6), and 25 miles (instead of 29), starting at section 5 and ending at the end of section 9.
Also, if anyone would like to contribute--and yes, I will accept $1 as a donation, or even a handful of change!--come and find me at home or on campus, or you can go to my sponsorship page on the CFF website and donate online.

More later as things happen! :)
