New post graduation goal: hike the entire Appalachian Trail before I go to work forever in corporation land. My parents are willing to throw down big for graduation, so I think this might actually end up being a cheap alternative compared to what they were talking about - paying for me and four or five friends to travel Europe for a 4-6 weeks or something like that.

I'd rather just go drag gear through the backcountry. I'm a simple man :)
