On the way back from Alabama, William and I made a detour to begin a quest that I’m sure will last for many years.\u00a0 We are going to climb to the\u00a0highest point\u00a0of all 50 states, that is our goal.\u00a0 On January 27, 2008, we started the quest in Florida at the lowest of the 50 states high points, Britton Hill, a whopping 345 feet above sea level.<\/p>\n
Some will be easy, almost administrative, like this one, whereas others will be quite the adventure.\u00a0 We intend to do each one with some type of hike or some adventure associated with it, so even if a high point is drivable, like Alabama, we will go to the bottom of the mountain and do the climb\/hike to the top if it is at all practical.\u00a0 On this one we did about a 1 mile hike around the park, just exploring the nearby woods.\u00a0<\/p>\n
We don’t have a timeline, and plan to just have a fun time of knocking off as many states as we can.\u00a0 We’ll probably get 7 or 8 mostly in the East this year.<\/p>\n
