    lol....I loved it when Jess ran to greet Sarah . Watching the reaction of the two other women chatting was priceless. 😂. They stopped for a minute to watch you both, then turned back and continued their conversation. ☺️. Society has come a long way. 👍

    Please don't kill moths! Let it out! They are so cute!!! P.S. they don't bite! You've feel good saving a life, believe me!
    Loving the journey. THIS...is the way to hike!

    I'm a dour Scotsman. So when I say that you two are - by a country mile - my favourite couple - irregardless of sexuality - then, take it from me, there isn't an ounce of saccharine in this sentiment. You are both simply great. Tis a pity that the rest of the human race can't be like you.

      Well put Kai Kito. They are wonderful. Not so keen on the snake though.

    Back in the 70's I was backpacking the AT with my father, his biggest advice to me was "slow down and look around, enjoy and embrace what you are doing".

    The way Sarah is doing this hike sounds pretty ideal to me. Some nights in the tent, others in the van. I’m may give it a try, some day soon....... M pretty sure that poor tiny moth isn’t going to hurt you.......

    My god there's too much to comment on😁 your doing so many miles Sarah, blows me away. The emotions are raw for a reason, it's to challenge us, we can find growth in there in the dark places. I love you girls and pup 😘💖🌈

    Happy Birthday Sarah 🎂🍭 and a Happy Birthday to Oliver also. 🍰🍨. And Jess you are doing AWSOME.
    It is beautiful the support and love y'all have for each other and y'alls fur baby. Keep on but be careful and safe. Be careful with the snakes 😱 And bears 😨 And any other creature that may be bad. When I saw that giant snake it scare me. You are a braver soul than me cause at that point I would have quit. 😱🙀😫.
    Thank you for taking us alone on this once in a life time journey. AWSOME 👏👍👌💪🙏💜

    Well done, Jess, on tackling the moth! Each trial we tackle makes us stronger. And setting up that birthday surprise shows you have more planning skills than you give yourself credit for. Enjoy your week.

    Congrats on 100 and 1000 miles, Sarah! 🎉. And Ollie looks in heaven with all those people and all the hugs and attention. ! Ollie's birthday cake 🎂brought a lot of smiles and joy to the hikers who got to share in the party. How fantastic. 👍👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼. Well done, everyone. 💕👍

    Wow, you are crushing the miles. So sweet that you guys are doing this adventure together in different ways. Happiest of birthdays. You both are doing amazing. Your challenge of making the decision to hike everyday is really something that also happens in everyday life. Getting up to work everyday is a decision. Leaving kids at day care everyday to go to work is a decision. With love 😉💜 keep trekking.

    Awww....Ollie is so cute! Of course he doesn't want to see you go. The pack is supposed to stick together! 😔. Hopefully, after several more times of this new habit he'll know you'll be back soon. 🤗

Stay Safe and strong,see you next weekend. 💖💖💖

    My dog, George, never responds to dog barks when I’m watching tv. Today, on Ollie’s second bark, as you were heading off away from him, George started barking. I was so startled. It took awhile for me to settle him down. It must have been the plaintive cry in Ollie’s bark that got to him. 🤓

    Thanks for your videos! You 3 are a pleasure to "know"!!
    In 2002 (when we still lived in Nassau Cty. NY) I went on the Camino de Santiago de Compostela. That was 750 km or so in 5 weeks. That was in part a consequence of 9/11. Now we are back in Switzerland enjoying retired life at 'home' (my wife is Dutch but by now she prefers CH to NL).
    I'm now 78 and Désirée is 75. We enjoy (short!) hikes, E-Bike rides (ideal for Emmental which is either up or down!), and regular swims now that COVID allows me to dip in the community covered pool. Good luck and remain healthy!
    Love - Peter

    Moths are harmless. All you have to do is put a cup over it, slide a piece of paper underneath and then put it outside and let it go.

    Wow! What an undertaking for you two. Sarah, you are killing the miles. The scenery is fantastic and I love that I hear your music on trail. So happy you met those other hikers. Jess, you are doing a great job with all the logistics it takes to support Sarah, especially the birthday and, later, the trail magic. It will be interesting to see how you guys settle in to a rhythm.

    Thanks for the honesty from both of you. Yep, trail life is not always sunshine and roses, and being the support person back home has its own challenges.

    @wineberryred 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Supported hikes are actually harder because of the logistics and constant switching from hike/camp to RV/Hotel. Once you make that decision to hit the trail it's easier because you have everything you need on your back. You only need to rely on towns for food, laundry, and lodging. The mental game is the hardest part.

  • @123meaghanb
    @123meaghanb 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love watching your videos and I am enjoying this journey! I love the juxtaposition of your individual videos.
    As a mother I feel the odd need to warn you/ prepare you for the inevitably that you are (and need to be) coming to a crossroads where you are each going to be in very different head spaces. What a gift that each of you have hiked the PCT together and understand what it means mentally! At some point you are going to have to have a split…Are each of you ready for the separate journeys this trek represents?

    • @123meaghanb
      @123meaghanb 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I should add that my husband and I have an RV and have discussed the idea of me hiking the PCT and him (and our kids) supporting me along the journey. In considering it in more detail I came to the conclusion that I could do it for a bit but at some point, having my family along on the outskirts, took away from the necessity for my finding a “tramily” and a deeper connection to the trail. Ultimately I decided that there were places along the PCT where I wanted them to join me for a night or two but I couldn’t be in a mind frame where I came to depend on them every night or every few nights. I wasn’t going to connect with the experience in the way I needed to. Part of the joy and experience of the PCT is in finding the comradery of other hikers living thru the daily struggles that I too was experiencing.
      I can’t speak to your journey but can only offer that it was difficult decision for us to reach as a couple. Ultimately I had to figure out what it was that I wanted on the adventure and why I was seeking it. In the end I came to the difficult conclusion that it was a “solo” journey. It’s a tough conversation and I know you two will make the best choice! I look forward to seeing how the two of you figure out what your path is!
