Baby on board. Stackable…backpack, baby seat. When mother and baby took the bed beside me, I admit I was less than hospitable. Think about it from the mother’s perspective as she could never set the baby down. No showers or trips to the toilet without infant. Feeding is simple…breast feed. But what about the diapers? I can’t imagine a box of pampers in her backpack. I hadn’t the constitution to ask.



Amazing, I couldn’t have even contemplated it ! x

I had a bit of a chat with the mother this morning. She seems quite grounded. Baby had her own pilgrim credential passport book.

We saw a couple at Elk Garden on the AT near Grayson Highlands. They were hiking the AT with a toddler and a baby. I guess if you are determined and organized you can make it work. I was never that organized or that brave. Thank you for sharing your adventures.
