I have a long day ahead of me today so will not be online much. I have to organize all the computer and network wiring down at my father’s store and it is extensive. He called me and asked me last night if I could come down today. He is worried that it is a fire hazard after one of his surge protectors starting smoking yesterday. It is a bird’s nest of a wiring mess and may take many hours getting it all sorted out.
On a good note, I came into a considerable sum of cash yesterday. A check I have been anticipating from the state for months finally arrived. It was from an old 2001 tax refund that somehow never got sent to me. I think I am going to use the money to hike the 100 mile Pinhoti Trail this fall when the weather cools down. Pinhoti is an old Indian word that means “turkey home”. The trail runs through Alabama’s Talladega National Forest.
My first step will be to order detailed topographical maps of the trail off of the internet today. I have read online that the trail can be ambiguous and is not near as well marked or traveled as the Appalachian Trail so maps are a must
