Love the pictures and stories from the trail. Looks like the scenery and company are great and only getting better. Love what you said about taking time to wholly be in the present without a destination or distraction, reminds me of our phone-free walks back in Berkeley during the pandemic. Enjoy the wandering!

Absolutely loving these posts, and vicariously living through you on my train rides to work. I’m thinking of your trail musings throughout the week, and taking those quieter moments as an opportunity to be present and grateful. Incredibly impressed with you, and can’t wait for the next update! Stay safe out there

Admiring your trip and your insights, my friend! Keep it up!

Very quickly, these updates have become something I'm opening my inbox to seeing if they've come through each week. I read them to Graham. After the last one, he said affectionately, "Do you think one day Connor will become my friend like yours? I really want him to be."

Keep on keeping on! Much love from MN!

Amazing journey, but I think my favorite photo so far may be the In & Out burgers.

Hey, Connor! We don’t know each other well, but I’m enjoying reading your posts — excellent idea to go wandering when you feel lost. I’m commenting to say that I think you might like “Going to Pieces Without Falling Apart” by Mark Epstein, if you haven’t read it. Maybe the next watering hole will have a Barnes & Noble…? ;) Wishing you all the luck and shade!

Connor we are so proud of you. You truly never stop surprising and impressing me. This is a journey of a lifetime and I am living vicariously through you. You are such a wonderful human and being in the midst of nature and solitude for such a long period of time is life changing. Most people would not take in this challenge and never what it means to be one with planet earth. Keep on trucking!
