I really enjoy reading about your JMT trips with the kids! What wonderful memories they will have.... and how lucky they are to start out their backpacking lives like this!!
...and...OMG... your pictures are amazing!!!
I also have a question - last year (or the year before?) you had posted info on a book that you had printed for the kids on one of their JMT hikes... what was the publishing company? I remember that you were really happy with the result, and had posted it... I was impressed.
