Well, I've found a new hobby that I absolutely love and can actually do
now that I'm a non-smoker. I spent all day hiking the Appalachian Trail
in the White Mountains. The tally:

Mt Lafayette: 5,260 feet
Mt Lincoln: 5,089 feet
Little Haystack: 4,800 feet

Total miles walked: 8.9
Vertical Feet Gained: 3900

Walking is a lot harder when you're going up for four hours. Weather was
really really bad too. I don't think my legs are ever going to work again.

I have not smoked in 2M 3W 7h 6m. That's 83 days! I have not used any
nicotine at all since 9/03/2007.

Phil..... I'm absolutely jealous.
I'm gonna have to get to the doctor about these feet, ankles and
knees.
I wanna hike too!
