I love hiking in the mountains.
I do too! I live fairly close to parts of the Appalachian Trail. Where do you like to hike?
I have never been on the appalachian trail. It is on my bucket list.
It is beautiful! The best location for me was McAfee Knob in Catawba, Virginia. Who do you like to hike with?
I have never heard of that place. I will look it up. May have to spend a week there.
