    You're in good company. Supreme Court Justice Jackson gave a commencement speech last weekend and used "Survivor" principles to illustrate her life philosophy. She even said "Survivors ready? Go!" Enjoyed your last thru, really enjoying this one. Wish I'd been able to figure out when you'd be in Harpers Ferry because we would have put you up. Maybe next time. 😉

    Taylor, Here's a thought for a Post Trail video since I'm sure you film more on Shelters than you normally share: Do a Video that shows tours of all the Shelters that you have stayed in or visited like Quarry Gap Shelter, if you have video.

    Wow, you did better than I thought you would, judging by all the sweets you had in the previous video. My hypothesis was that you’ll get tired pretty quickly in the first 7-8 miles. And then I’d thought that insulin spikes may cause emotional drop of enthusiasm. I’m glad I was wrong! :) I’m a couch expert
