After a great send off reception at my church on Sunday night, I have arrived in the Smoky Mountains to begin the 2008 Ridgerunner (RR) Season. The next couple of days I will be meeting with the other RRs to get up to speed on any new equipment, rules, etc. I look forward to hiking and maintaining the trail from Fontana to Mollies Ridge. Especially eager to meet this year's thru-hikers. Keep hiking,
