Welcome
This site is intended to allow my friends, family, and students to follow my adventures throughout the summer. By posting updates about my travels, I not only help reduce my parent’s blood pressure, but most importantly, it will hopefully allow my delightful younger cousins to see some pictures of things they haven’t yet experienced.
This summer I will not post daily, but will post updates when I can. I plan to travel to Denmark, Sweden, and Wales for a combination of celebrating a friend’s wedding, some urban hiking, and concluding with a thru-hike of the South West Coast Path.
I hope you have an amazing summer!
Be Well,
Bree

Hi, Bree!
Micah and Noah struck out from my house at 6:00 this morning to meet you on the trail. I got exhausted just watching them prepare for their two-day hike…can’t begin to imagine what your much larger adventure is like, but I applaud you for doing it and wish you all the best.

My dad, who lives in Springfield, Ohio, is avidly following your journey. He’s wondering if you’ve considered venturing east and doing the Appalachian Trail? (It’s a little shorter – 2,410 miles). He admires your energy, grit and spirit of adventure.
Thank you! I think the Appalachian Trail may be a bit too social for me:)

Got connection MT friend/college classmate Jim Valentine. Was speaking with Jim about my interest in a thru-hike of the PCT, which being 73 next years presents interesting challenges and unique opportunities.
I’m an experienced athlete and hiker, but not with the physical and mental conditiining required for the strenuous efforts of the PCT, as you well know.
I will be regularly following your blog in the weeks or months to follow. I would like to consider joining you along a portion os the WA. and perhaps develop a friendship.
Sincerely,
Frank Doolittle
Thank you Frank! The logistics of trying to meet someone is tough, but I’d be more than happy to answer any questions or help if I can. There are some older guys on the trail with strategies that work well for them!

That’s just peachy. That is abutoslely the best brand of chocolate milk I have ever tasted, but I’ve never seen it in stores outside of Los Angeles, which I haven’t lived in for a decade. So, yeah, thanks Charlie. You get $2 million an episode for the crappiest show on television, all the drugs and hookers you can fit into your mansion, and you’re drinking my goddamned chocolate milk to top it off. The only way the universe could be more unjust would be if … no, wait, yep. Charlie Sheen just shot my dog.
Hey ms fuqa I miss you a whole lot and I miss you all ready ok
Thank you McKaynee!! I hope you are having a great summer! Good to hear from you!!!

Bree,
I live in Kalispell and have a son that is a freshman at Glacier High School. I read the terrific article about you in the beacon. Our book club met last night and the book we read was Wild by Cheryl Strayed. We had a great discussion and I shared this website with our group. You were part of the discussion! I have enjoyed the blog and pictures and I wish you the best on your journey! I look forward to following along with your adventure!

Everyday of this trip is a big accomplishment only to have to get up and do it again the next. Take a moment at the end of each day, be proud of yourself, celebrate a little and enjoy who you are. You’re Awesome!
