So, if you want to try creating your own typography, Birdfont is a free tool with everything you need to get started. You can also import vector images created with Illustrator or any other vector design program. Then you can add vector points and hide the background image with a button. Just add the image, crop it, and scale it so it fits on the screen. One of the most interesting tools in this program allows you to insert a background image and create your font from there, meaning that you can trace other fonts, or create fonts based off of different shapes. If not, there are various tutorials on the official website that will help you understand the basic tools. The program's interface is a little clumsy at first, but you'll quickly get used to it. You could spend hours looking for a free font that fits your tastes, or, if you're willing to get your hands dirty, you could design your own.ĭesigning a font is made easy with Birdfont in fact you can do it in a matter of hours. My AT journeys to date - 1/3 of the way done! We have recently expanded from just providing information on PA to all of the AT states.Sometime it's tough to find an original font for a design or presentation. We are still collecting data for the other states but could really use some AT pictures to spruce up our pages. If you take a look at PA, you will see how we would like every state to look. I'll be going north to south, finishing in Harper's Ferry. I've been backpacking on the Appalachian Trail (the "AT") since the late 1990s. In the years since, I've knocked off 721 miles of the AT, traveling in sections from Erwin, TN, to the MD/PA border. Each year I try to add on a new section, and this year I've decided to write about my preparation and the hike itself. It's Hiking Time I've been backpacking on the Appalachian Trail (the 'AT') since the late 1990s. I'm currently training for the Richmond Marathon in November, so I didn't want to take too much time out of marathon prep for a hike. I fondly remember my first multi-day trip - 4 days and 3 nights hiking north from the James River to Reed's Gap on the Blue Ridge Parkway. All patches must be compiled with support for valas null pointer checks.

So this year I'm blocking out 7-8 days to hike south from Duncannon, PA, to Harper's Ferry, WV, a total of about 125 miles. Pennsylvania doesn't usually show up on hiker's "must do" sections of the AT, but the hike is close, and I can drive to it, so there's less of an issue for travel time and expense.

And it should be fun to finish in Harper's Ferry, the traditional "psychological" half-way point of the trail, and home of the headquarters for the Appalachian Trail Conservancy, the organization that coordinates the clubs that maintain the trail. I'm planning on starting my hike on September 17 - only a month away! In the meanwhile, I'll be posting about a variety of topics - how I plan for a hike, the gear, clothing, and food I take with me, and some of what's involved when you actually hit the trail.
