Today started easy enough, but that was deceptive. It was a long, hard day. Ron, it reminded me of a certain 19 mile march in November 1969.
For now, I am at the end of the tour.
Sorry to sound anti-climatic but right now this boy is tired and going to get some sleep. See, that is one of the differences between this walk and Ranger school – when I’m tired, I can go to sleep. I will write a more extended description later together with some reflections and further thoughts on this memorable trip.
G’night.
Walking Across Switzerland 
Congratulations on the successful completion of the “walk.”
your done great job you did amazing and also thank you for making the blog
The Roadside Repair is the first time I’ve seen you be able to take off your footwear – that is a good sign……
A marvelous accomplishment.
I can’t believe this is over – what am I going to do next week for adventure (????) – I guess I’ll be forced to chase women…….or watch paint dry if nobody cooperates……
A second achievement just behind the actual hike: your decision to write this blog has fascinated so many people. We’ve taken much pleasure from this adventure. The blog was a brilliant decision that influenced many, many people. Thank you.
Now go chase your woman.
Good job, John! And great blog! What’s next?!
Thanks for letting us share the adventure…..now let’s find a few trails in the Smokies we haven’t walked Bob
