But it was an adventure Dave could not shake from his system. And then fortune (you know that mythical thing – not an actual pot of gold) smiled upon him; and he had an opportunity to make his dream a reality.
So months ago he hatched a plan to join the others who have sought to through-hike the Pacific Crest Trail. He bought books, he studied, he bought equipment, he made equipment, he made maps, talked to people, and did his homework.
Jane, by his side, figured out how to get him the food he needed along the way - and in the process became a dehydration queen.

And after all the planning, it now is just mere days before Sunday, April 18, 2010, when Dave leaves on his momentous journey.
He plans to use the web site http://www.trailingducks.com/ and this blog to share his journey with his friends and those people who are interested.
So be sure to stop by frequently to see where Dave is and offer up words and encouragement and support. And remember, if you ever want to join him just go to the website and you can coordinate to meet him and get more information there.
