I hit a nerve!

A week ago, I announced my decision to take a career sabbatical to start my Appalachian Trail adventure. In just one week, this announcement has received a tremendous response. This has hit a nerve! In this post, I explore our relationship with work and share some inspiring stories of other AT thru hikers.

On that Midnight Train to Georgia

My Appalachian Trail adventure starts on Easter Sunday, April 9th, 2023 with a 630-mile train ride departing at 6:30 pm from Union Station in Washington DC and arriving at 7:30 am the next morning in Gainsville, Georgia. It’s the midnight train to Georgia … literally!
