I chuckled when mom and dad signed my good luck banner as..."Have a nice stroll."  Hiking the A.T. is arduous, but today, I had a nice, very nice, 17.5 mile stroll through the forest in Vermont.  My Sunday morning walk in the woods was peaceful.  I ended my day perched on a lookout above a cabin watching the sunset paint the sky with shades of red and blue.  Bear, Slider, and I enjoyed the panoramic view of the mountains which were breathtakingly beautiful.  I could spot Mt. Washington and felt a rush of emotion.  I am totally psyched to summit Mt. Washington!
