I have been backpacking Grayson since 1971. Your presentation is outstanding. You should have a million followers!

So, right around the time when they first introduced the ponies! I appreciate that! 😊 In a way I'm kind of glad I haven't reached a million. I love getting to know and keep up with the community of folks who support what I do.

I enjoyed your Foothills Trail video so much (I took notes and used them when I did my Thru hike last Fall!) I’ve backpacked Grayson Highlands twice. You’re absolutely right when you say, “ample reasons to come back!” Great vlog!!

That makes me so happy to hear!💕 I love when something I've shared helps folks on their own adventures 😊 That's awesome. Did you do the same route twice? Or something new each time?

@@SeagrasstoSassafras different routes.. the first time I did a loop.. quite similar to the one you picked. The second time I did a point to point because I wanted to hike into Damascus for trail days. Just a beautiful, glorious area!

You're a real artist with your filming, editing, and narration. I hiked from Damascus to Grayson Highlands and didn't see one pony. Glad you got to see some. Keep up the great work.

Thank you. I really appreciate that! 😊 That stinks. I'm sorry you didn't see any. The pony elders probably called an important meeting that week, and everyone had to attend 🤔

I have had trouble ordering your itineraries and this one is no different. Not allowed to pick the state on the order. Paying thru PayPal. Not sure what I am doing wrong. Has anyone else had any problems. Perhaps I will try again later.

I'm SO sorry you keep having trouble! I haven't had this happen with anyone else unfortunately 🤔 Did you get my emails for the last ones? I can send you an email for this one as well while I try to get to the bottom of the problem.

I just bought this one (and I think I have most of the others). I wonder if it might be a browser issue? Maybe try a different one just to see? The itineraries are so packed with info…Jessica should be charging more for them!
@SeagrasstoSassafras Жыл бұрын
Katie, That's a good idea! It could have something to do with the browser. Guy, maybe try logging out of your PayPal and logging back in again. Sometimes that works for me if I'm having issues getting a payment to go through online!
