Dana's dumps better have a pic of Terrence and Luca that continues this legacy right here. If we need the filming of another season, so be it.

Marty Hart you are never beating Rust's kept housewife allegations.

Eggsy and Harry fight in the bathroom.

You know, I'm pretty sure Harry was dreading this conversation. He doesn't even try to get Michelle to accept help from Kingsman. Instead, he gives the medal to the little kid, who seems much less willing to blame him.

At the bar, he practically empties his beer glass while talking to Eggsy. He must be stopping frequently to take a sip. I also attribute this to his severe anxiety.

Harry almost immediately tells Eggsy that he's the one responsible for Lee's death before Eggsy starts judging him.

Okay, to be fair, Harry is a pretty vain person. And I think it was incredibly hard for him to admit that at one point he didn't save someone's life, but took it. That instead of the gratitude he sometimes recalls, he deserved condemnation.

But otherwise, Harry is a pretty sensitive and responsible person. And he did try to thank Lee as much as he could.

His reaction to the accusations is not an attempt to devalue Eggsy's efforts, but an attempt to protect his own feelings. I'm not making excuses for him, I'm trying to understand. It's wrong, and Harry shouldn't have said that. And I hope Harry apologized to Eggsy for it.

Unexpected Pleasure

Yesterday my neighbor called up to see if I was around as he had some people he thought I might like to meet. Rob had just driven over the pass on Washington Highway 20 from Mazama. Mazama is a little blip in the Methow Valley that features a small number of shops and a brewery. It is also the first place a hiker will come to from Hart's pass on a return from the border. As Rob was passing the Mazama turn off there were three people attempting to hitch a ride west.

Rob being the huge hearted person he is, stopped and gathered up Luuk, 'Toasty' aka James, and Dr. Nick aka Alejandra. This trio was making their way toward Seattle for whatever the next stage of their adventure would hold.

I met the group at Rob's house and we immediately found common ground. As we shared a refreshment we swapped some stories and impressions from our respective PCT experiences. This mini trail family was a reflection of a PCT demographic that acknowledges the international make up of the PCT community. Luuk traveled from the Netherlands and Alejandra (Dr. Nick) from Mexico, while James (Toasty) came west from Virginia. Toasty had previously hiked the AT. They have walked a lot of miles together once they linked up. They have navigated fires, smoke, and numerous trail closures not to mention any and all other things the trail can throw at you. It was immediately apparent they earned every single mile from the southern desert to the colder and wetter north. As they got nearer the Canadian border there was rain and even a little bit of snow flying. Obviously the perfect time to end their journey!

Luuk, Dr. Nick, Rob, and Toasty

It was not a surprise but more a confirmation/affirmation that the trail community is real and alive with warmth, humor, and yes, even some magic. Meeting and hanging out briefly with Luuk, Dr. Nick, and Toasty was a real highlight for me. I feel I made a connection with them albeit from this brief encounter and that is just how it seems on and just off the PCT. People from diverse places and backgrounds become part of an interpersonal Venn diagram.

I don't know if I will see these three again but for now I am so warmed by their spirit, friendliness, and shared experience. As my friend Rob would say, "Onward!" I hope wherever that is we somehow share a few more stories and impressions from their PCT adventure. Here's hoping!

Luuk, Alejandra, me, and James...Alejandra is holding a copy of 'Crossing Paths' our collection of hiker/writer stories with the hope these three will be inspired to share some stories in the future here...fingers crossed!

That big wide grin is turned on him now, tinged with the hint of smugness from a woman who's been called out for being good at something. "Nice to see at least one man in this bar has a decent set of eyes." After all, she'd hardly even been subtle about it, knowing that most men wouldn't look past the tight fit of her jeans or the low cut of her shirt. It's not exactly a cocktail kind of establishment, but Hartley doesn't let that stop her, leaning over the bartop a little to bat eyes at the bartender while she asks for a strawberry mojito and is assured he'll find what he needs. Still grinning, she turns back to the man who'd so easily clocked her. "And who should I thank for my drink, baby?"
