We decided to go for a short hike at Mistletoe State Park today. I thought it would be fun to get some practice making videos out on the trail. It's not much, but hey, it's the first video I've made of us hiking and the first with this camera.
Enjoy!
Video is HD

Hitched Hike blog arives!
May 4th, 2011
What is Hitched Hike?
It's a documentary of a loving married couple (me and my wife) hiking 2100 miles from Georgia to Maine on the historic Appalachian trail.
When is it?
Don't expect to see the film until spring of 2014, sorry. We won't be starting our journey until spring of 2013 and won't be finished hiking until that fall.
How did it start?
We had an interest in hiking and backpacking that led us on a few small excursions, and a lot of casual reading up on hiking and backpacking in general. I came across the Appalachian Trail (AT as it's commonly know) and was amazed that such a thing existed. I mentioned it to Jacki, and to my surprise, she was very interested in it, but nothing much came from it. We both just thought it was a cool thing.
In mid January, 2010, while hiking in the mountains of North Georgia, coming back from the Len Foote Hike Inn near Springer Mountain, Jacki said straightly, "I want hike the AT." I replied, "You know I would have to get out of the Air Force." "I know. But I'm okay with that now. " From that point we have been gearing up, saving up, learning as much as we can, and hitting the trail as often as possible. We can't wait to start our journey! And although I'm contractually bound to a windowless office building until December of 2012, I have my AT pictures on my desk and the weekends on the trail to keep me motivated :)
Look for posts in the future as we prepare for our "Hitched Hike"!
