Come and listen to PYC MEMBER:  Jennifer Rannestad share a dream  that

she made a reality.

Jen’s introduction:

“One day, I had a realization: I was at a point in my life where I could do something just for me. My fascination

with the Appalachian Trail resurfaced. I hadn’t hiked any of the trail south of Connecticut. I could take the train

from Georgia and walk home!

 

In April 2022 I retired from my 30 year career managing Essex Meadows and embarked on my 1,474 miles journey

taking the train to Georgia. I reached my goal of Kent, Connecticut, in August.  After a few months at home, I decided

to finish the trail. So, the next summer, I picked up where I left off and hiked 724 miles to Mount Katahdin, Maine.

I mostly hiked the trail alone, but I enjoyed the company of my sister for a few weeks. John also joined me for a few

 weeks and completed all of Maine with me. “
