Criminy...You've been rockin' the hike here, Matt. I can't believe the progress you're making. You know, I've never been proud of you before, but I think I'm going to have to start saying nice things about you. :)

I hope now that the weather has become a million times better here that it is also a million times better on the trail. I'm letting Western Mass know of your progress weekly on the air. We talk about how impressive it is that you're doing this and then say how lame it is that I've done nothing in my life. It works out well.

I saw somebody say to fight boredom that you could recognize plants and stuff. Well, instead of actually learning botany, I say just make it up. Start you're own botany...like mattony...or something. Everybody will be impressed when you bring back samples of plants with names like "mattadendums" and "mattflowers". A whole new science will emerge!

I'm done. You're not. Keep kicking butt.

Matt, I must say that I am extremely impressed at your progress on the hike. I feel half-dead after an hour at the gym, and yet you just keep on trekkin'. That's awesome.

And if you do decide to take your brother's advice on developing "Mattony," you must promise me that the first pink flower you will name after me. :)

Keep up the good work, Matt. We're all rootin' for ya!
