Day 18 - Saturday, June 5

Written By David Green

This entry is dedicated to the AT. I want to let the people I interviewed talk about what makes the Appalachian Trail such a magical place. For me, it was a glorious day of trails, mountains, waterfalls, the inspirational people/stories and dog heaven for Lucky as he ran every step of the 20 miles and close to 5,000 feet of elevation listening, seeing and smelling nature’s wonders.

David lives in Florida and Portugal with Mônica and their three rescue dogs. A portion of this book’s proceeds supports the charity.
