    Loved the video. It’s so wonderful to see people like the Mama Bears that share the love of God , the love of people and the love of nature and all of it’s glory. Helping others is truly something special and rewarding. Ms. Donna is another one of Gods Angels. God bless and keep on stepping.

    Hi Kelly! I am a 61 year young thru hiking enthusiast. I live in spain and in march 2020 set off on the camino de santiago (via de la plata route) including finisterre. Its a tough 1200 kilometres route accross central spain. I was 250 miles in and covid happened and the camino closed i was devastated. However this October im going again. I just wanted to tell you your journey is inspiring me. You are a free spirit who goes with the flow and enjoys every moment. But you also put the hard work in when you need to. I just wanted to say thanks and good luck. I will continue to watch and be inspired by you. Much love and luck to you

    Hey 9 lives... Your interview with Miss Donna of the Mama Bears was the ornament of this video. It's so uplifting to see people like that who love the world of nature and the hikers who have immersed themselves into it. Hope you'll do more interviews as you're an excellent interviewer who has gained so much respect on the trail that people are comfortable talking to you. Wouldn't interviews with the folks at the ATC in Harpers Ferry be a real treat?

    I’ve binged your entire AT hike in last 2 weeks, so now I hate waiting for more videos!!! I actually can hear sound of your feet as meditation. I used to have a song (random ones) stuck in my head all day, so it’s nice to hear footsteps on trail instead. That could be made into meditation track w the rivers, birds, etc.

    Morning Kelly! Welcome to 2 months on trail! Simply amazing! Looked like a great zero and an even better Nero! I just love the postcards. I plan on sending myself postcards when I take my thru hike. I did it on a trip to Montana I did once and I found it a great way to journal. Huge thank you to the Momma Bears. You are a beautiful group and what you do is so inspirational. I had a funny feeling that the video was going to end with you and a cat 😂 Nine lives, the cat lady. Thanks for bringing us along today. I hope tomorrow’s miles are kind. Keep truckin’ and be well. #giveashit

    46 mins. Is that a fogbow ? Skies look too clear to have rained. I got a picture of one in Big Meadows one year when I was camped there. Sun reflecting off the early morning fog.

      Something came to mind after I posted this and that was the time stamp....in the New International Version of zechariah bible verse 3:4..
      The angel said to those who were standing before him, “Take off his filthy clothes.” Then he said to Joshua, “See, I have taken away your sin, and I will put fine garments on you. Lmbo😘❤️
