Food for 14 days?

Hello all. I've been spending the morning sorting and planning my food needs. 14 days X 3 meals a day = a lot. I do have tons of tea bags and hot chocolate captured from many hotels stays in the last few months at work. And something called Sport Tea that my brother sends me from Colorado. Drink a cup, and you get a great lift in spirits, and your whole body vibrates for about 15 minutes. I don't know what the hell is in the stuff, but I do know that I'll reach for it on those cold rainy mornings when I don't want to get out of my sleeping bag!

Attended the Friends of the MST annual meeting yesterday in Greensboro. It was great. When Becka and I were announced as trail hikers, everybody clapped. They wouldn't let us pay for lunch, and I won a new red fleece hat as a door price. Which is perfect, since people are telling me that my old navy watch cap has a funky smell. I picked Becka's brain endlessly about what to expect on a million different topics, and she was very helpful. Many people came up and offered advice, support and help. I feel very supported, and some sections of the trail that I was unclear about now make perfect sense. Thanks Uncle Fuzzy! I'm off for a hike with my new Leki poles bought for me by a very special friend.( You know who you are!) Just a few weeks left until launch. Yikes! I'm ready to go TODAY.
